Hummingbird

My mind is abuzz,

Like a hummingbird does.

It can't be still,

And it was my will

To make everything so,

Because how will I know

The outer limits of my essence

Without spiritual lessons?

Self-taught, fear not,

Happiness is sought

Through a curious burn.

The lessons I learn

From engaging my mind,

Is that I am not blind

To tuning into frequencies,

And avoiding delinquencies

With each new experience,

Learning to control delerience.

My inner being thirsts

For a gift labeled a curse.

I want to break these chains,

Be more than insane.

I want to be free

To be the real me.

Every great individual

Has ideas that are sensational.

So say what you will,

I will have these spiritual spills,

That shakes where I dwell,

And brings me out of my shell.

I have the right to engage

With my mind, uncaged.

Hummingbirds die

If they are caged inside.
