Worries On My Mind

Worries On My Mind

 

I have a restless mind

With worries that deplete

With little happiness

Or true serenity 

 

My worries are insane

And from dark places abound

And remind of the days

When depression kept me down

 

The catharsis that I need

Comes when I vent

As often as need be

Until I’m peaceful again

 

Church sometimes helps

Though I do not pursue religion

But in the choir I have felt

That peace I have been given

 

There are good things sometimes

When my life I inventory  

And it’s then that I find

I’m no longer plagued by worry

    We all worry at times - do we? Some things don't come to pass, or if they do, they are not as bad as we worried they might be!
    Sometimes, through not having enough to occupy us (?) we may search for 'what to worry abut next. doh!

      don't worry
      be happy
      is in a song I once heard.
      so keep in tune.

            Thanks, G! To sing joyfully is wonderful praise.
