Self Destructive Thoughts

Lost in a world,
Of thoughts galore,
We chase after thoughts,
Of things we adore!

But despite not even…
Having them yet…
It’s the thoughts that we crave…
And not what we get!

For after we get…
What we think we require… 
The thoughts move on…
To the next desire!

We get things we want,
But compare them to thought!
Then fail to be happy,
Till the next things bought.

Happiness then…
Is a destination…
That changes as soon
As the next thoughts creation!
Love can be often
completely one sided,
Because thoughts are egos,
And defend what’s decided!

If one ego decides…
That the others “the one”,
Then despite being wrong…
It’ll try till its done.

We can love a thought…
Without the person!
And the more we think…
The more it will worsen!

Cause love is a feeling…
That causes thinking…
That causes more feeling…
In a heart that is sinking!

Thinking’s not bad…
But beware when you use it!
Its intense! And powerful!
Pleeeeease never abuse it!

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
