Why Do I Look The Way I Look?

 To Whomever it may concern😂

PAD Challenge 24: 

For today's prompt, write a question poem. 

So while a scale horizon-lines...

Why do I look the way I look?

Well, I get lost in thought your see

My mind is like a picture book

When thinking gets the best of me

So, if my gaze seems far away

Though we are sitting, eye to eye

And I miss most of what you say

And make no sense with my reply

Forgive me, if you can, my dears

I am still learning the fine art

Of fitting words inside my ears

When I am lost in worlds apart

So while I scale horizon-lines

And fail to listen, please be kind

And smile as I wrangle with vines

 Tangled in mazes of my mind
