perplexity's veil

Roll up the veil of perplexity!!
I am now friends with an absurd being
Long walks while holding hands,
Is our favorite routine.
When my mind is lost,
she comes in, puzzling it the more
So many thoughts, my mind did bore
Some were efficient and some were not
But she was always there, to sweeten it up
This is the true face of perplexity,
The friend in me, that confuses the me.

It's been a while since i wrote a poem or rather posted at all, but that's all about to change now. I've defeated the forces that be. At least for now, lol....

So it's now time to dive deep.

DIVING DEEP

This is a very confusing poem for some, because it literally means confusion. So it's gonna get lots of people confused.

Roll up the veil of perplexity!!
This means remove the veil or cloth of confusion.

I am now friends with an absurd being
This is saying, the poet persona is friends with confusion

Long walks while holding hands,
Is our favorite routine.

When my mind is lost,
she comes in, puzzling it the more

Like all friends they stick close together, but his, is one that kills him, mentally.

So many thoughts, my mind did bore
Some were efficient and some were not

How to get rid of his friend, was what he was thinking of, but an idea can't come when the friend is also in where the idea is being made.

But she was always there, to sweeten it up
Like a veil she was always there to block his sight and install more confusion.

This is the true face of perplexity,
The friend in me, that confuses the me.

This sums it up, nothing will work for you when you're always confused with everything, even in your own mind.

My quill bleeds!

You covered the poem very well. Congratulations, very well written friend. Sometimes, decipher the meaning of what they think is difficult. We are friends in good times and bad times. In clarity or confusion. Your pen bleeds as you say.

Thank you for your kind words friend, and the visit. It's been a while

Mostly commend your creative use of words

Thank you brother, i really appreciate it

"You quill bleeds" indeed.

It is a well-penned poem and the explanation backing it makes it easy to decipher the meaning of the poem, and also appreciate it. Thanks for sharing this beautiful poem with us.

Yes friend i reasoned that not everyone will easily understand the poem to its end so i decided to make it as easy as possible, thanks friend, for your frequent visits and support
