Not Enough
I wonder sometimes
why my mind skips
mind skips
like a scratched CD
tick tick tick
Information overload?
Over stimulated?
Not enough words to define my thoughts
Not enough words to define my emotions
not enough
not enough
Too much silence
not enough movement
not enough
wondering what
the next thought will be
how long will it hold me
sustain me
distracted by similar thoughts
not enough
nothing strong enough
to engage me
thoroughly
I can try to slow my mind down
to focus
not enough
too many thoughts
a voice inside me
begging for order
keeping me together
together
my mind drifts
like a bird in the sky
soaring
through and around
clouds of thought
drifting
drifting
drifting...
