Contradiction
I feel crowded and lost
trapped in this space.
So far to run
yet no time to race
Confussed mind cluttered
with empty fullfillments
Goals far away in the distance
Everything jumps in the way
To reach them, I strech....(sigh)
I can't..... not this day
Crowded yet empty
my mind fights to produce
I try and I try
yet and still no use
There are stories that rhyme
there are 24 hours in a day
yet still not enough time
If only I could encamp in quiet, a moment
to myself.
All other things done (for now)
placing distractions on their shelf
Opportune day, the right moment all mine
dull thoughts replaced
with a bright vivid shine.
In comes my passion,
a dear sweet friend I find.
Clock winding down
Sun setting on this another day
Closer I approach
Quiets sound
Given another opportunity to rectify
Crowded and Empty's
CONTRADICTION
