Thoughts
Unlimited and Endless
Thoughts overflow my mind
Surprisingly the past becomes the present
And the present becomes the pastÂ
All in an instant
All in a dream
Suddenly disappearing like foggy clouds
My thoughts fly away, leaving me confused and amused
Like leaves departing from their trees
My impressions pass through my mind swirling away
Mistakes, illusions, nightmares, and dreams dance together in my mind
And I lose the sense of realityÂ
Happy and sadÂ
Hopeful and disillusioned
I stand passively waiting for the next mistake or maybe success
The silence is too loud, and it confuses me
Astonished and dazed, I find myself in the same place
Like a pebble bouncing on the water
I lurch from thought to thought.
