Maddening thoughts here
Sensible contemplations
there
Things
to be done
Regrets
of matters undone
A strong tug here
A gentle pull there
Past
beguiles to lie in its arms
Future
stands luring with its charms
A
whisker of imagination here
A
touch of reality there
Thoughts
of utopian life seems so soothing
Angst
against hypocritical societal norms brooding
Some stories here
Few verses there
Fictional
characters waiting to be created
Unfinished
drafts still to be completed
Cheerfully bright here
Shades of greys there
Finding optimism in things day to day
Lessons that need to be taught right away
A little warmth
here
Lot of angst
there
Smiling
faces of loved ones floating
Past
deceits continually exploding
Messed
up here
Chaotic
there
A
terrible place
My
mind !!
