Boredom and extra time is by my side,
As cognitions dwell on painful events.

Historical and present moments eat up my thoughts,
Thinking how these circumstances can affect destiny.

Depression and anxiety kicks into gear when pondering fate,
Wondering if a secure future is bound for glory in my life.

In order to protect myself from the unknown riddles,
I must stay active with my body and mind throughout the day.

Letting the brain explore new ideas by reading books,
Or moving my muscles through an exercise routine.

Staying occupied due to hobbies of enjoyment is key to sanity,
Always making sure that I’m busy by activities which produce smiles.
