A Poet's Heart Never Sleeps

Doesn't matter where I look or where I go there's always something that sparks the soul and keeps me thinking and writing and writing and thinking. Even in my sleep, (when I sleep), I find there are things that spark the deepest emotions.
Being a poet is great, but can sometimes be tiring when the mind naturally stays in the speed-zone. The normal thoughts I have that run through at a thousand thoughts per second often get mangled with the thoughts that I'm actually wanting to put together. Thus, sending my mind to who-knows-where, while my body operates on auto-pilot.
I may not always have the ability to keep up with myself, but I wouldn't trade this crazy, twisted, complicated, fun, emotional life for anything in the world. :P
