Fragmented Thoughts, Or, Wasting Time

I
Scattered, torn, ruined and needless
Thoughts,
Like a flock of birds,
flying in the orange twilight sky,
It looks good,
maybe,
but makes too much noise for my liking.
II
There are days,
and then there are nights,
but memories of an once beautiful Love
haunt me all the time,
Peace - a moment's silence - is more precious than the look in an Angel's eyes
III
And I have ran out of ideas,
but not short of memories,
Memories - of You and I - us...
Us, that never wasn't
We never existed together
uniformly,
like atoms of Hydrogen and Oxygen in water
IV
On a short moment's notice,
High on three hundred milligrams of Venlafaxine,
and low on controlling the high flow of my memories
of you,
Depressed and lethargic,
I started to pen a poem about my fragmented
thoughts
V
What are thoughts?
............................................
... ... ... ... ... ... ... ..
Read between the lines
and maybe your and my thoughts may combine
into a poem - maybe a Haiku
VI
A lonely poet in a frustrated frenzy
wrote a poem that looked crazy
And made no sense.
VII
Sense is an interesting thing,
like sensing that this isn't really a poem,
but a caricature of a poem,
A wastage of Time
VIII
Is Time precious?
Is YOUR time precious?
Is YOUR TIME more PRECIOUS than mine?
then I apologise I ate up yours.
IX
I apologise to myself too
that I had ate up my own time,
Or did Time devour me?
Do we spend our time,
utilising it, or wasting it
or maybe, merely, enjoying it in a lazy leisure?
X
It doesn't really matter,
Your Time, my Time, our Time, Time's Time,
All will go on
Spend it, waste it, do whatever you like,
read a silly poem,
Time will go on...
Was it worth it?
