In My Mind

Ten thousand thoughts a day
It is hard for just one to stay
Speeding around like a runaway train
It’s enough to drive me insane 
As I gaze into the abyss that I call my heart
I’m interested in the truth, but getting no remarks
I sometimes try to grasp in a manner unwise
Because these words of lost thoughts are a selfless demise
I will never let negativity suppress my dreams and steal my hope 
Without these two how can I exist and cope? 
In my thoughts I'm going where there is no fear
Where the spirit is free and near
Only Jesus can ease the misery
There is no more pain and voracity
My mind feels jubilant and relieved
That’s all you have to do is trust in God and believe
