Thoughts, that's all I have That's all I am They move through my brain like a car on a freeway Sometimes I just want to set up a construction sign Block out the traffic. My mind jumps like a grasshopper from one subject to the next. My thoughts are scattered like lake effect snow falling from the sky. Why do I Keep writing them down? It's not like the thoughts are attached and make for a beautiful thoughtful poem. I keep trying to convey my thoughts into something brought together with beautiful imagery or with deeper meaning. That's what consumes me. I must perfect my poetry. Make something out of nothing. Attention is not what I seek I just want you to take a peek. This is who I am. Making a masterpiece with words is what I feel I need to succeed . Making something worthwhile and not fade away like another boring meaningless day. Catching dust like some old textbook no one cares about anymore. Here I am breaking the dam and here now the thoughts they are flooding, flooding drowning me. Drowning deep deep down within the blue sea? Like that hasn't been done before. For obviously this creative way to put my thoughts together has become such a big chore. For if you only knew for these thoughts are so hard to ignore
