My brain gets wrapped up
Clouded
In a drowning sea
Where the waves crash down upon me
And I can’t think straight
I hear the annoying sound of the clock
Ticking like a sledgehammer
Beating against my head
This thought wanders this way
This thought goes another
This thought tries to trick me
Trick me into thinking I’m caged
Trapped
Can’t breathe
Little whispers of –
The world is crashing in
The money’s wearing thin
You’re not ok
You’re never gonna to be ok
Each thought digs a deeper hole
But when all hope seems to be lost
I euthanize my brain
Kill it mercifully
Empty the contents of old
Leaving it infantile
All things come from emptiness
And a new seed is planted
Patiently I let it grow
Peace shoots begin to sprout
Love starts to take over
The sent of beauty overwhelms
Hope hangs down like vines
And this rebirth continues
Like a phoenix from the ashes
I become reborn more magnificent than ever
