Drifting

it's not a feeling I can describe

its everything and nothing

too little and too much

at the same time

I'm everywhere and nowhere

thinking that I'm not 

disconnected from a mind

floating off

just drifting

Aloha!! I wrote this yesterday. I don't usually edit poems that I write while dissociating, but I hope you like this one~

I kinda see this poem as daydreaming myself, nicely written

Nice work, although it's not clear whether the writer regards the dissociation as a positive or negative experience. It captures the feeling itself perfectly. Personally, I enjoy the relaxing effects when I just drift away - some of my favorite poems have come to me that way!
I enjoyed the lightness of this piece very much.

wow! a peek into dissociating ... your poem is disarming in the reading ... for what i imagine is a rather terrifying experience ... in life ..the repetition of difficult times does breed some level of comfort and taming of the fear ...but this poem is something else limoncello .. thank you very much for sharing ..i love it...wouldn't change anything ... and the text to the right of the page is perfect in its effect with your poem ..

i really like this it's short and sweet and has a good air to it, I'll make one suggestion though, on the last line, "just drifting away" would sound good. nice work though

[Carola]

yes i agree with you too, it's a phonetically better finish.

I am wondering if this interesting poem describes a practice of the poet's or an actual symptom.
