Here alone in my thoughts The place where I find comfort I toil around Blissfully Keenly remembering thoughts that make my mind race Enjoying my own company with the voice that echoes in my brain That is until suddenly, reality shows its face Leisure turns into chase I find my self ducking and dodging Revisiting that which was a peaceful place Dashing to happy thoughts, desperate to get away Once a playground, now used forcefully as a dire escape But the truth is you can’t outrun the truth Nor can you hide And so in that realization I fell on my knees I prayed to the one who listens Whose burden is light Then I stood up, looked it right in the face, and in total terror it ran from me Why did it cower? Such a long chase just to run Just then a tap on my shoulder.. There He stood towering behind me “Well done my good and faithful son” And to think I was alone in these thoughts

A Shared Mind
Here alone in my thoughts The place where I find comfort I toil around Blissfully Keenly remembering thoughts that make my mind race Enjoying my own company with the voice that echoes in my brain That is until suddenly, reality shows its face Leisure turns into chase I find my self ducking and dodging Revisiting that which was a peaceful place Dashing to happy thoughts, desperate to get away Once a playground, now used forcefully as a dire escape But the truth is you can’t outrun the truth Nor can you hide And so in that realization I fell on my knees I prayed to the one who listens Whose burden is light Then I stood up, looked it right in the face, and in total terror it ran from me Why did it cower? Such a long chase just to run Just then a tap on my shoulder.. There He stood towering behind me “Well done my good and faithful son” And to think I was alone in these thoughts
Lengthier but worth the read
