Gaudy Humor and Ponytails

It's never still

It's always loud

Like in my head there is a crowd

Of unanswered questions 

And unfulfilled dreams

Always nagging me it seems 

The why's never stop

And the ouch always screaming

Then here comes humor

Self deprecating

Sometimes honest in its approach

Mostly kicking me where it hurts most

Because as long as amusement 

Fights despair

Maybe I'll stop losing all my hair

To the nightmares that creep up to frighten me

Not My Things

Some days apathy just sets

So heavy upon my neck

The weight of the world

Seems to rest on my shoulders 

A near constant backpack and forth

Between what I loath

And I love most

The intricacy of my mind

Lagging behind 

The experiences in life

That have betrayed me

It wasn't always friend or foe

That delivered a huge blow

To an ego created by attachments 

I was only just a child

When materials were offered 

As a response

From two wounded adults 

That chose to have children

I write lots of things

Laced with bravery

Conjured from somewhere 

I'm speaking into existence 

If it weren't without thine

Own gaslighting of the mind

What would be left

But a void not so distant

Growing my own tree

Up my spine and in between 

The courage to self reflect

Not project

On the past

And the pieces

I hope that one day, not three

The pieces start coming back to me

So I can go on and not abandon myself completely

So I just left the hospital, I was supposed to have my first mammogram. While I was checking in the nurse told me in their system they have me as AKA another person with the same first name but a different birthday. They had never seen this happen before.

Any ideas what happened?
