This bright mind of mine
is ready to give it's all
and speak the absolute truth.

But you see,
it can't do that.
This mind sees road blocks
The size of Goliath
and runs away like a coward
back into town.
Why does a simple hello
feel like an idle journey
that I cannot complete?

What my mind says
and what my voice delivers
are two exact opposites;
they are distant planets
who despise each other
and have no intentions
of ever coming close.

It feels like everyday
my mind is at war
and I can't gel in these pieces of myself
unless my mind can conquer my voice
and create something endlessly beautiful.
