my pen writes a few lines But the words don't come out, Giving meaning to my thoughts. My mind gets warped and my thoughts, Just can't keep up with the ideas that I get. I think of everything and nothing at all, As if my head is in a free fall. No matter how hard I try to concentrate, The mist in my mind, I can't penetrate. I close my eyes and try to meditate, But the emptiness, just doesn't abate. I give up, maybe some other day, The mist will clear and show me the way. I glance through the lines on the page, And sense they do convey a message. In the end I am all smiles, Like ending a journey of endless miles. Thoughtless words, meaningful lines Wisdom writes my life
