Don'T Bother Overthinking the Past

Don't bother losing yourself to it,

Caught in a full on dog fight 
already grabbed by the throat
cacophony of growling 
orbiting through my mind
playing a dangerous game

As my mind wandered my thoughts were thrown.
Lost in a whirlwind of doubt and despair,

End seeking, energy’s leaking;
see ye not, God at us peeking?
Is not beauteous, blissful moon,
from vagaries of life immune?

The outer world holds no allure,
for love alone’s...
