Addicted to intensity, I crave the highs and lows Hooked on the details, I find meaning in the minutiae Obsessed with feelings, I immerse myself in the depths of emotions Mad about beauty, I seek the sublime in every corner of life My drug is my consciousness A heightened awareness that I cannot escape I live for mindfulness, each moment a treasure Yes, I yell and cry and hit the wall Yes, I am sorry for the turbulence I bring No, you won't calm me down, For there are too many voices within me Too many selves clamoring for attention I'll soothe myself with the gentle strum of music The serene embrace of nature And the pure, unbridled laughter of my children These are my sanctuaries, my refuges Where I find peace amidst the chaos of my mind In these moments, I reclaim my balance And remember the beauty of simply being.

Chaos, beauty and being
Addicted to intensity, I crave the highs and lows Hooked on the details, I find meaning in the minutiae Obsessed with feelings, I immerse myself in the depths of emotions Mad about beauty, I seek the sublime in every corner of life My drug is my consciousness A heightened awareness that I cannot escape I live for mindfulness, each moment a treasure Yes, I yell and cry and hit the wall Yes, I am sorry for the turbulence I bring No, you won't calm me down, For there are too many voices within me Too many selves clamoring for attention I'll soothe myself with the gentle strum of music The serene embrace of nature And the pure, unbridled laughter of my children These are my sanctuaries, my refuges Where I find peace amidst the chaos of my mind In these moments, I reclaim my balance And remember the beauty of simply being.
