State of Mind

Dry like water Hard to comprehend State of mind Failing to understand Stretched and differed Dreams are narrowing Believe not wasted Preserved and restored Eyes wide open Blurry vision endured Road not seen Mind still elastic with stretched consciousness Memories are fading Chalk on blackboard The words bleed, the meaning breaks Pretense so cheap Like perfume stench Stretched words thought Danger cannot see Dry like water Hard to comprehend State of thoughts Failing to understand Mind deemed to fail Misconceptions now awakes Danger cannot see But boldly lethal To the weak And the naive Blindly and frantically looking for tragedy Tragedy is fondly looking for victims Dumb and naive Only one notion The braves survive Dry like water Hard to comprehend State of mind Differed but reminded Words we utter Eyes so dry From blurry vision Mind sense distorted An uncontrollable wishing Consciousness stretched wide Mind so dry Wisdom quenches ignorance View of life Hard-knocks we face Pressureof life Beats you down till you're humble Mind be retaught Soul of life Must be preserved Dry like water Hard to comprehend Mind and thoughts Must stay refreshed
