troubled mind 06.19.03

troubled mind

a trouble mind wanders
reeling from the dreams of the night before
foreboding of things to come
or pent up emotions from the past
often times it is difficult to discern
sometimes the dreams seem so very real
so real it is a blessing to awaken
yet the dreams linger throughout the day
persistent reminders, persistent thoughts
it is impossible to quiet the thoughts
to quiet the visions
impossible to tell dream from reality
and what is a troubled mind to do
to dwell only brings depression
to dwell only lends it power
and yet not to dwell means to ignore
and ignoring can only delay
a troubled mind wanders
dreading the dreams that will come tonight
