Having a hard day
Sleepless last night
Thinking all that angers me
Keeps me up at night.
Not mine to control
Not mine
Yet I struggle
Struggle to let go.
Happiness evades me
Anger, frustration
He said
She did.
Why can’t they see
They’re not right
And I’m in the wrong place
Not where I want to be.

Holding on, holding tight
Steeling to make it thru the night
While thinking of basking
In the broad daylight
Making no matter of the matters
That matter tonight.

Sitting here thinking
About what my day may be all about
Hoping for no pressure, just fun, laughter
You know what thats about.
Hoping my heart will grow with love
While my sorrows just ebb away
No tremendous thud
Yes, I could learn to love
What that is all about.
Just sitting here thinking
Thinking what my day
Is going to be all about.

Thoughts are thinking
Thinking thoughts
Working out answers
Questioning a lot
Thinking.
Thinking in silence
Thinking out loud
Thinking.
Thinking thoughts
Creating magic
Developing a dream
Thinking.
Thinking of a scheme
The correct way to be
Leaving nothing unanswered
Thinking.
My thoughts have been
Thinking
Thinking of everything.

Thinking of the beauty
Here in spring.
Thinking of growth
The rising from the ground.
Thinking of life’s birth anew
Oh so profound.
Thinking of creation’s magic
Like the beauty in a wren’s song.
Thinking
Thinking of a song.

Wondering, wondering
What tomorrow will bring
Worried, thinking, hoping
Nothing but good things.
Wondering, wondering
What tomorrow and the days after
Have in store.
Wondering, wondering
Still wondering for sure.
