When Thoughts Are Constrained

When thoughts are constrained, from our being drained. Do we flop down, in some dismal pain. Or do we rise up, as cute as a pup. And start all over a-gain. When moments are lost, do we pay the cost. Or do we fall down, and do we feel lost. Or do we lay down, as cute as a pup. And stop it all abrupt. When time passes on, that we can’t get back. Do we stand down, or do we attack. Or do we sit up, as cute as a pup. And start all over again. When your life is through, and I’m not with you. Should I go on, or should I stay blue. Or should I speak up, as cute as a pup. And start all over again.
