In the dark abyss of my mind Twisted and contorted thoughts you may find Or brilliant sunshine, laughter and ease Sun-scorched petals dancing and twisting in the breeze
A silent theatre where I can hide No one will ever know what I see For if one was to infiltrate the deep crevices of where I confide There would be no recovery for me
Thoughts litter in a jumbled way It seems like I have little control They often wander and stray These amblings of thought take a hefty toll
Negativity corrupts and destroys The beautiful garden Eden of my mind Planting seeds of doubt, a reality decoy To try make me stray from my path, that which I must find
To rather plant luscious seeds of hope and joy And nurture and care for them Will serve to one day grow a garden Eden to enjoy And make all my wishes grow and stem
For all the things you picture and see In your minds eye And vividly imagine them to be Appear before you, so reach for the sky
For in the final hours of one’s life It’s not the things that you did that you regret It’s the paths you took that weren’t in your life’s strife If you follow what you love you’ll have a life no one will ever forget
So find what means the most for you and seek it out Search, find and never ever pause For to whoever can open their minds to dreams but not only dream about The world is and all in it is yours....
