when I speak sometimes the words just won't come out right
thoughts and ideas take a tangled flight, leaving my tongue in a knot,
and me lost in thought.
when I write though, not always but sometimes, some magical times, it's like the words
are transmitted to me from some cosmic thought center where right and wrong are neatly organized,all black or all white, no grey in sight, then they filter up through my soul and flow onto the page,,
I'm hoping this is one of those times,,,
lately my mind takes me on a trip, a journey with every thought, even the simple ones somehow manage to wrap themselves up, twist around with others and form a labyrinth,
in which I find myself lost. Many times when I'm lost I turn to my compass, my anchor, my guide, that either keeps me in the "here" or helps me find my way home if I must leave.
Never do I need step by step turn by turn directions to find my way home,
just a your doing ok,
your making your way, it'll all be fine
No cosmic tom-tom sits on the dash of my mind
I've gone on these trips my whole life, I guess
I've gone alone,
but with my compass the going is easier
until I feel the compass no longer cares to help guide me home,
then I travel alone as the compass spins out of control
I spin as well
what I knew to be right becomes wrong
what was wrong becomes right
the maze less navigable
with no end in sight
