The mechanism of my brain
How do you sleep and so easily settle your mind?
Isn't there a traffic of noise that's loudly whirring inside?
How do you remember all those important tasks?
I wonder how it feels to complete what's asked.
How do you calmly listen and not talk too fast?
How does it feel to have friendships that last?
How can you plan and think of tomorrow?
Will it not overwhelm that time now, or will soon be your past?
How does a person show such vast integrity
To be your true self without wearing a mask.
How do you clean but keep it that way?
If a person should visit on your messiest day?
Do you not worry about what they think or might say?
The workings of an exhausted ADD brain.
