Mind

Getting lost within my mind Not a healthy place to be, So many dark & twisted thoughts That mock reality, Most of them are memories I never will escape, Some are traps or landmines That want to see me break, How much can I take? I wonder Before I'm really lost for good? And when I'm gone will anybody Know I fought hard as I could? Or will they think I just gave up? Letting go of life and all its laughter, Some of us were never meant For happily-ever-after.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Examine, if you like, the possibility of joy eternal by shifting the baton of awareness from head to heart, in resonance with love, in a stillness continuum. The reward is bliss eternal.
