My thoughts keep drifting....

My thoughts keep drifting

And now I wonder why

I keep on sifting.....

Through the truths and the lies

I have allowed my past.....

To be where I laughed and cried

But yesterday is gone

Tomorrow hasn't come

I wonder should I stay

Or should I start to run

Away from the challenge

Of facing the now

Do I stare it in the face

Or remain with my head bowed

Ignoring things that are better left unsaid

There is a long standing hunger

That has remained unfed

There are very few times

When I don't know what to do

As at this moment, in this space

I decide to stick with the truth

Whatever that may be

And whatever it is not

I just want to see....

How I should unfurl this plot

Having taken the red pill

There is no going back

I am open, my heart can spill

But I will never retract

The decisions I make

Each and every day

I am wondering what this is

Why do I feel this way

My thoughts keep drifting

To the forefront of my mind

There are things I won't say

But clearly I'm not blind....

I don't know what to do

But I hope that I find....

Peace.
