 Breathe

Hectic life, full of distractions
Derailed by my reactions
Drawn and quartered by factions

Feeling so totally out of sync
Disconnected from my grounded link
Writing on paper my feelings with ink

I sigh, wonder why I'm swept by the tide
Feeling my common sense completely fried
My wits and my soul are destined to collide

Why must I rush into the fire
Headlong, driven by desire
I see that to which I aspire

Driven deeper by my emotions
Taken by my mind's notions
Drowning in the deepest oceans

Within, my heart does seethe
My sword of battle I now sheathe
Then immediately I relax, then I breathe

sometimes, I got to just step out of
myself for just a moment, and Breathe...
