All I need is my peace of mind

February 15, 2016

With freedom from wandering thoughts

That lead to the reign of anxiety

When worry consumes me

Wondering where my life will go

The battle that happens inside my head

As my thoughts conflict and don't make sense

Everything seems to be all wrong

And I can't get past this frame of mind

I miss the carefree thoughts of childhood

I want to return to that glorious state

Where everything made sense

And I didn't have to worry

Now I'm disturbed by the jumble of thoughts

That don't seem to fit

Or make any sense

No longer in control of all of my head

Knowing there's more of my own self to find

Searching and longing to know all of it

Less and less peace with each little bit

Clinging on to each piece of my mind

All I need is my peace of mind
