the inside of my head and mind
is like a freeway of the worst kind
thoughts are racing here and there
crisscrossing & colliding everywhere
hour after hour, no end in sight
all these thoughts are taking flight
there are no signs, no rules to heed
just mayhem at incredible speed
no matter how hard I try
they always pass me by
no thought is giving me a rest
or helps me on my quest
I’m dizzy, slowly lose my cool
exhausted, running out of fuel
the crazy traffic in my head
fills me with despair and dread
there is a battle to be fought
a fight to organize my thought
never mind the hurt and pain
I must subdue my unruly brain
bring peace and quiet once more
close the windows, close the door
only then will I be in full control
victorious and completely whole
