Surroundings

I sit. I stand. I wonder. What am I pondering on? 
I have no clue. At times, I walk empty headed with 
no thought whatsoever. Other times, I ponder on paranoia.

Paranoid, I think about what others' minds think about.
I try to see their thoughts through their body language. In my 
paranoia, at times, I feel like people are watching, gazing on 
something so pathetic.

In my surroundings, I see the vehicles of life. In each of these
vehicles there is a Soul. I see human beings walking on the 
pavement of the journeys and wonder if I should smile 
and greet them.

Sitting on the bench, I ponder at the struggles that invade 
my mind and Soul. How do I deal with them? I get into 
depression; a sad and gloomy face. I wish that I can rip that 
face off.

My mind is weary fom these racing thoughts with paranoia.
What does that make me? Maybe I am a paranoid freak that
I can't even live a breath at a time. 

Maybe one day I will seriously be able to sit down and enter 
into my thinking, and pull one thought out of another.
