Don't Mind The Jailbreak

 

Up or down?

Left or right?

Which way do I go

To find my mind?

On the loose again

Escaping the cerebral cell

It built over the years.

On the run from despair

While searching for the key

To lost treasures

That were underappreciated

When they first shined

On the heart of the matter.

The more I think about it

The more I believe

That maybe I am better off

With it running free,

If I tried to lock it away again

It will only drive me insane

Till my emotions become

A padded room.

too funny and very true for some.


if I don't write down what is in my head
it turns to a freight train it goes so fast
so many thoughts then the Balance Is off.


My favorite stanza's lines LOL...



If I tried to lock it away again

It will only drive me insane

Till my emotions become

A padded room.

Right? And it's a b***h sometimes that the padded room is the last resort to staying sane or just on this planet. Loved this. :)

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Right again you are, thank you so much :)

[Lydia Shutter]

So true...emotions need to escape the psyche or they end up being your captors. Great introspection here. Lydi**
