In my mind

Where all the emotion do rumble
upset with the tumble
They feign happiness
To keep the world cool

The stars shine in hope
To light up the darkness
In which corrupt minds
try to pull everyone down

Waves will crash against the shore
Yet the thoughts will never stir
Fixated on perplex sorrow
Pity, doubt of finding peace

Too blind to see truth
Yet knows when to read the signs
To notice when the curtain lifts
Yet stunned in the warm spotlight.

Just thoughts on my mind. I end up writing out this poem in my head while brushing my teeth. I'm going to show this to my therapist this morning since I really have nothing to talk about today.

(this poem's meant to be random.)

I find these "head writes" say the things that need saying the most. Enjoyed your thoughts.

A good read, thanks for posting.
What to say, especially about this subject? ...
Good old Thoreau said that, quote, "The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation." Yet, such is not the poet's fate...

Abuse of power
is pernicious slavery.
Defend against it.
