I Want To Clear My Mind Poem by Anna Pacheco

I want to clear my mind of him
To empty my heart for good
Or could this be just a whim

As time goes by, the light grows dim
I’m no longer in the mood
I want to clear my mind of him

I want to be rid of him
No need to be misunderstood
Or could this be just a whim

I’m filled to the brim
Nothing is as it should
I want to clear my mind of him

I don’t want to be a victim
It’s like I’m out of my ‘hood
Or could this be just a whim

It’s all getting quite grim
I need to be understood
I want to clear my mind of him
Maybe, maybe this is just a whim
