So its the weekend.Time to relax and unwind and forget about all the things that have pissed you off during the week................
How I wish that the weekend was 7 days long...! But unfortunately it isn't,and unfortunately we do have the misguided pleasure of working for superiors who,at the best of time,don't have a clue what they are doing ,and expect you to sort their mess out for them.
I was sitting in my room the other night.The lights were off except for a bedside lamp,it was late,very late - and then I started to think....and remember,and when i do that - I start to write,
and below is one of the places my mind went to  - I call it The Tilted Room.How many of you have been there before.........

As my curtains breathe
I'll be thinking of you-
The sun would shine
but it wont shine through,
As my pictures move along the wall-
I'd sit in silence and
watch them fall
Sitting in my tilted room
I don't know what happened -
It happened so soon
You threw my life
Upside down
You're not the queen of my heart -
But you still wear the crown?
....sitting in my tilted room.
As my cupboards open
and the bats fly out
I quietly listen to them
scream and shout
As the floor surges and
sinks away
I'd stare at the ceiling as
it fades to gray
Sitting in my tilted room
I don't know what happened -
It happened so soon
You threw my life
Upside down
You're not the queen of my heart
But you still wear the crown?
....sitting in my tilted room.............

    This is absolutely beautiful.
     
    My room is not so much tilted but sometimes the walls come in.  Sometimes they come in far too close for comfort until I can't breath.
     
    But the large light room does return.

    Familiar yes, very, if I had read this about a year ago I would have immediately thought you were psychic.
