Tangled Mind

If ever my mind was tangled it would be right now
My thoughts are like a rope, I need to untangle somehow
But it’s hard when you can’t find the end or the start
I look wondering if this mess will ever come apart
How did I get like this the rope was ok last time
But that just pulls me in deeper along the line
If only I had the answers screams out in my mind
I try so hard to unravel and get what I want to find
But in the end I think is that what I need to be ok
Its troubling sometimes but each day is a new day
And so I’m driven a fire continues to rage on the inside
I leave my comfort and fight and no longer hide
I’ve had those longs days of feeling bound by chains
So this time I step forward not seeing any guilty stains
My heart is pure and loyal for I fight for pure soul
I don’t look back worrying I strive on to my goal
I’ve layed down my burdens and have risen above
And in my spirit I hold on to hope, faith and love
Three things that will endure the length of life
I hold them very dear close to me like my wife
My wife to be actually but its now that I’m fighting
Stirring up my mind I zap bad thoughts like lightning
I take captive this deadly coil that’s wrapt in my mind
I release forgiveness and all evil I take and bind
Then I let go and the journey never returns to me
Because now that I’ve let go I can be forever free
For the tension of this rope has been let loose
And so its come to that time where I fill the noose
I kill this idea that I will never move on
So watch me go for eternity I will walk on

Hey steffan Thankyou for your comment,, sometimes is hard to know what to say ..But l think it is brilliant that you have enough confidence to share your deepest words that get tangled up in our minds. You sound like a very deep , caring and fragile person .But you be so proud of your talent and who you are. l don,t have the confidence to share my poems but l keep them in a big book and read them every now and again ,l wish you well ,,and keep up the poetry.l think it is fantastic take care for now
