The mind is a chaotic


The mind is a chaotic place

Attention is here one minute and gone the-

What was that?

A sound, a whisper in your mind

A thought or just a memory?

One thought leads to the next

Happniess leads to wonder

Wonder to confusion

Confusion to anxiety

Anxiety to-

Where am I supposed to be?

Who am I supposed to meet?

What happened last Tuesday?

And then you rest and breathe

But the mind never rests

The mind is a chaotic place

A place where imagination is free

No such thing is a bad idea

To build a floating tree house

Trees made of clouds

Clouds made of marshmallow

Mashmallow made of-

Another idea

It lights up your mind 

Breathes in imagination

Then....

Then its gone

Like it never existed

And chaos continues

The mind is a chaotic place
