Words are escaping me

Words are escaping me 

T..h..o..u..g..h..t..s
                               more like dotted lines

The gap is familiar
                   unfamiliar

                   still
                   stormy

                   numb
                   loud

Being here is not always a choice

An act of will? Illusory at best 

A cursory laugh
A temporary shower of joy
                       do glide away
                  Oh, how hard we are taught to fight the glide!

Is this complete here? I don't know 
Is that what I should seek? I don't know 
For, when you read, you will know 
                                & that, I do know
