Thoughts

Take time
Think
Thoughts race
Heart follows
Soon over the edge
They will flow
But are stymied
By the pain
Somehow it reaches around
And grabs hold of me
My head, my arms, my legs, my mind
I am consumed completely
Into raging screams and bouts of laughter
Joy and fear bottled and warped together
Until what is created seems to be nothing
Nothing but nonsense and insanity
Am I this insanity embodied?
Wishes form to my lips
But are never vocalized
Because you may hear
And become scared
I do not want to frighten, or awaken
Your sleeping soul
Do not worry, darling
I’ll keep my secrets
So you never have to know
