Slower To My Thoughts
My mind is
Moving rolling
Soaring
Moving faster
Slower to my thoughts
My mind is on this
Winding track that is…
Link by kink
Growing faster
Slower to my thoughts
My mind is on fast-forward
While my heart is on rewind
My mind
Fanatically oppressed
Dramatic to heart
Systematic to life
And this track is…
Bar by bar
Swelling faster
Slower to my thoughts
Drawing a circle
Stroke by stroke
It closes in
Bringing my mind
To this…
Word by word
Flowing faster
Slower to my thoughts
My speech is jagged
Thick and cracked
Lacking the smooth continuity
Melodic
Symbolic message
Because my mind is getting away
On this…
Running faster slower to my thoughts
I can’t function
Because my brain
Is filled with the essence of the world, me, you, me
I can’t function
Because my mind, forever
Moving
Rolling
Soaring
Is on this…
