The little voice in my head

The little voice in my head

Is always a chattering

Words rumbling at every pondering

Like beans in a can

They scream, yell and whisper

Words that only I can hear

Urging me to take a stance

A view point if I have

How often do I ignore it

For guts I somehow can’t find

Fickle is my mind dear

How much do I close my eyes?

I can see it coming

Aware I always am

The want somewhere has weakened

The will somewhere is gone

Build me up I pray

The will to do strengthen

To follow the voice inside me

To do what is to be done

I know I am a seeker

One who wants to take a stand

Without so many answers

Some questions I don’t understand

Procrastination is my sickness

It seems to pull me down

Losing out on the moment

Eventually it is gone

Wish I could control them

At will, or click, or go

But the voices in my head don’t listen

They only speak some more

How do I learn to channel

The words this voice does speak

Act well in good judgment

A kind deed seek

I must somehow admit though

They’ve never let me down

The voice in my head

Are words from far above

One that we all ignore

Telling us what to do

To act right at the right time

I am very sure and so are you!

My GloomyMind

The gloomy weather mirrors me
Days seem longer than ever...
Nights just crawling by
A never ending rut
It’s only a week
And so many more to go
Time just wedging into my heart
How soon will the day dawn?

Stone cold droplets beat against my face
Hiding back tears like a veil
Disguising - is a smile
For the rest of the world to see
My woes are my very own
No soul shall decipher
Tucked away
In the abyss of my mind

When you needed a shoulder you called on me
You always found me standing there
A friend to wipe away your tears
No better did you know
Many came and many went
Used chewed and spat-
And I am left standing there
To get stronger for more

I am tired
I can take no more
I need a break
I need to flee
To be free to myself
To feel the glee
All for a moment
Not asking for more

For you teacher

I was just clay in your hands
You held me and mould me
And truly now I see
The hands of the Almighty
That worked through thee
