Soul say write but brain takes flight

Poetic Dan

My soul knows it's true
Not wanting to die
Before I'm ment to

Yet my brain trys to override
Telling me all kinds of lies
It will better in the next life

A single belief that I'm not
Ever able to be enough
Self medication is a must

Once the need to let go of pain
Could be slowing the flourishing

When it's never the tool needing blame
Just an addiction to short cutting the game

Thoughts are now rapidly in flight
Scared that I'll continue to write....

    You're bold, strong, confident as that lion! He looks like he could command the sea. It won't drown him, or overcome him. He knows - you know.
    Sometimes habitual thoughts can try to take over, whether negatively or positively.
    Reminded me of a picture - a kitten looks in a mirror and see itself as a lion!

      Thank you for your kind words, the support is much appreciated. I was not sure why I chose that pic but I guess I trying to be him

      Your writing need not scare you, it is a release from the horrors in life.

        If only that was true as I'm hiding from the truth and dancing round the straight forward meaning of this post because what I say I must do.

        Always appreciate the push to do more
