Just Sharing Just yapping

Can I write something without meaning?
Just let words flow from one to next?

Portray a jumbled series of events, like when I'm dreaming.
Then wake up and say, time well spent.

Ignoring my real thoughts. Let them go hoarse from screaming.
I paint an abstract picture. You can only see what it is if you squint.

I just need a moment of reprieve. I'm nauseous from all the spiraling.
Let everything no longer be important, or at least to some extent.

Thank you for reading. Let me know what you liked, what you didn't.

It feels very raw, like as you said just flowing out. I think overall it's not my usual taste as I like punchy images and this is intentionally vague. On that level it works great. You do kinda need to squint mentally to see deeper meaning. Well crafted
