Boredom and An Extra Thought

Boredom And An Extra Thought

Bouncing around my mind. 
Thoughts of something. 
Cant get them to form a picture. 
So I'm stuck. 
Stuck with this thought. 
Pacing around aimlessly. 
Wishing.
Hoping. 
Wondering what to do. 
As I give in, it over takes me. 
The one I feared. 
Boredom. 
When will that thought form?
I scream and thrash. 
Why is it over coming my head?
My mind melts to nothing. 
My words get swept away in the air. 
My whole body and everything I am ceases to exist. 
Why does boredom take such a hold?
I walk up and down in my thoughts. 
Thinking. 
Wondering. 
Wishing. 
Then it forms. 
That one thought. 
Was it really that important?
Was the reason I was bored because I was dormant?
I nor you shall ever know.
