Do I Look Sleepy?
do i look sleepy
do i look sad
have my eyes
already packed their bags
do i look happy
do i just smile
have my memories
being correctly filed
do i look hopeful
do i look sad
have my dreams
found their carrier bags
do i look happy
do i look sad
has my emotional well being
just quietly gone mad
James Garratt – September 2020

Thank you :). Very playful this one – feels like something I could have written when I was younger 🙂

Ambiguities are ageless…as relevant now as would have been years back
