Matters of the Mind
Mind over matter's a myth,
So just mind your own matters!
What matters are the minds you're with,
If you don't mind their matters!

resorts of the mind
Here at our rooftop, collegiate, ‘resort of the mind,’
an early heatwave has struck - we’ve been advised.
Like we needed it. It’s 94°f and climbing - we’re not insensitive.
We’re aware that the sun is bright and the air is crisp and hot.
It was Friday morning, until the sun pointed to noon.
Nothing’s going to stop the summer

Chambers of the Mind
In chambers of the mind, we store each day,
Each lesson wrapped in wonder, fear, or joy.
What matters most will never fade away.
The smell of chalk, the light at morning's ray,
First bicycle, first book, beloved toy
In chambers of the mind, we store each day.
Not facts alone, but how they came to stay:
The teacher's smile, the moment

Newtonian Remnants of The Mind
Words Not For The Faint Of Heart
Commemoration for those gone before
Affectation of all you continue to adore
Altercation at the start of a burgeoning world war
Annihilation of the injured, innocent and poor
Commensurate collusion of the parliamentary debate
Irreverent confusion at the celebration of the state
Degenerate delusion as they refuse to integrate

Prisoner of the mind
In shadows deep where chaos grips my heart, A whispered cry is heard from the darkened cells
A child once laughing beneath a sunlit sky, Now lost in the darkness of despair.
Fear crawls like a serpent in the night, its scales revealing the demons I bear
I drown in thoughts that bind me to

The mind and wing
A small bug walks just like a thief,
It does not know pain, it does not know grief.
It does not ask, “Why am I here?”
It lives its life without a fear.
The bug runs when the light is strong,
But it forgets—it moves alone.
It does not think of life or death,
It only feels the light, the breath.
But I

That Is How Small The Mind Could Be To Beat
Soft heart can tell the silent dark sky's heat,
Red eyes might grow tough to handle mettle...
That Is how small the mind could be to beat.
Finger might flip up hints to pure deceit,
Somewhat so close to Cain's stunt on Abel;
Soft heart can tell the silent dark sky's heat.
Alcohol could have actualised such treat,
Upon rage within, ever

Love Looks With The Mind
There must be
a meeting of personalities,
a synchronization of Souls,
lots of the same ground
for 2 people
to become a couple
Love doesn't mesh
with the eyes
but with the mind.
Intelligence is the key
You must have
common interests, likes
Nowadays even
political views to
avoid discrepancies
making the relationship
go smooth, effortless
Not to say that
attractiveness doesn't matter
but is a part of a
combination of the whole

Empty out the mind
“Come undone to know God and we are one ~
We are as God’s child, His prodigal son”
~ quote by poet
We reincarnated a thousand times,
but in each life role our soul here assumed,
enmeshed in fears, we were deaf to love’s chimes,
so

There's a river meandering through the mind
Vast as a landscape, not a straight but a meandering one
Sometimes placid sometimes storms, but always moving
It is alive; always flowing getting lost in eddies of distraction
Sense of timelessness flowing for millennia,shaping the earth
Thoughts shape you like a quiet meditation on introspection
It doesn’t always follow a straight path and takes its time.

There's A River Meandering Through The Mind
It is a beautiful spring day,
birds are singing their little hearts out.
I am rocking in my favorite rocking chair,
as a cool breeze covers me like a blanket.
What could get better than this,
I ask - as I sit and ponder?
"There's a river meandering through the mind,"
with many thoughts.
Thoughts are running wild,
like the river meandering around

The Mind of Time
Minds meet mind minds to talk of what is pure and divine
But they too are caught in to the web and reveal some things
That should not be said, they have travelled a thousand miles
To mend the broken lines changes were coming soon so they
All gather at the table to test the minds to see

Power in the Mind
It starts with a whisper—
A single thought that says “maybe I can.”
Power isn't muscle or money—
It's the mindset that refuses to break.
You see kings lose crowns
But keep courage.
You see giants fall,
But the mind?
The mind stands tall.
Fear is loud.
But so is faith—
And when you choose belief,
You shift your fate.
Every empire began
With someone who dared to think

The Whispers of the Mind
The door to uncertainty,
The perplexities of today,
The unknowns of tomorrow—
We step through the door that stands before us.
The darkness of today,
The complexities of daylight,
The tranquillity of midnight—
We endeavour to catch as much catch can.
The promises of tomorrow,
The

In the Mind
My mind’s the only shelter where I hide
When troubles overcome and fear spreads
My mind’s a room where I can sit inside
Imagining I’m safe, untangling threads
Attempting to detach from grief and pain
I seek for consolations of all kinds
My mind is working hard to keep me sane
And it’s the only place where I can find
My dearest darling
