This consistent need to change
This burning desire to be better
Am I slowly changing for good
Or is it good that I am changing ?
I think a lot, speak a little
I dream a lot, act a little
This constant void that I feel in my Life
Why, why, why, I think to myself yet again
Caught in this trap of monotonous mind battles
Every day, I look into the mirror at my reflection, and all these thoughts pop into my mind. Sometimes they’re kind, sometimes they’re unkind—just passing through as they please. But this ordeal feels so monotonous, like I’m living in a bubble.
Erin May 2020
so it feels
when I tumble down the rabbit hole of my mind -
an endless gray envelops the day
clouds blanket the sky,
suffocating the sun
as I drown in my thoughts

but soon –
vibrant rays of color and light burst forth,
warming my soul
melting my anxieties
reawakening my senses -
reminding me of the flavors of life

and once again -
I dabble in life’s small delights,
dancing in its wonder
with my heart ready to smile love

— The End —
