Break Down

Baffled, befuddled, bewildered and dazed, 
My mind has gone for the day,
Changed to a colour that’s drained of a will, 
Drained to a light shade of grey,

And I know what I want, I know what to do, 
I know the small steps I must tread,
But these thousands of steps they tangle a mesh, 
Confusing the things in my head,

So an hour goes by, then another catches up, 
And a few more pass through my mind,
And my grey confused head sits on the couch, 
Leaving me feeling resigned,

To renaming my world to an impervious shield, 
Where ambition is held back with a glue,
Where the big things in life I thought I could do, 
Are now grey, miserable, down and blue.
