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
