Your Mind

You don’t quite know what’s going on in your mind
in time maybe you will find,
A way to go and a way to tell 
of the thoughts that won’t stay in line.
A jumbled mess nothing more or less
a story with no commentary,
The deep down fears and the nonsense tears 
those are unnecessary.
No organisation and many contemplations 
and lots of indecisive making,
The assuring demand for others to command 
which leaves others to do the taking.
Because the need is so strong that you just go along 
despite the consequences,
And by then it’s too late to try and congregate 
because you have used all your defences.
Unspoken concerns with many sharp turns 
hover continuously there,
With no way to banish and no sign of vanishing 
there watching you in a stare. 
Trying to run before the jobs done 
is impossible to achieve,
With questions left open and no answers spoken 
there is no way you can leave. 
But sorting through is the best you can do 
to try and make sense of you mind,
Because one day you you’ll succeed and you will be freed
just give yourself some time to find...
