Hypnosis

Calming voice
Heard just above the breeze
Light touch to forehead
Relaxes by degrees
Somewhere a bell is chiming
Seems so very far away
I think that I forgot my name
Somewhere along the way

Hear the clock
Hanging high upon the wall
I’m floating softly
Somewhere above it all
I think I might remember
Lost moments when I cared
But if I try to touch them
I find that they’re not there

Surrendering all
Hostage to this voice
I should still care
But it seems I have no choice
Remembering eyes
A blistering gaze on me
I really can’t care at all
I am no longer free

I'm drawn to blogging as a way to share ideas and consider what makes us who we are. Whether it's in our working life or our creativity, expression is a means to connect.

  1. To surrender and have no freedom is a terrible thought. Bit like marriage. Sorry that’s a dark thought on a day like today. Today is Christmas I shall put aside such thoughts and keep the good ones. You see what you poems conjure up for me. Have a good one Helen.

    I guess there are two sides to everything… the dark and the light … the yin and the yang … I suppose hypnosis is no different … it’s much like life but there are a few that have found the light
