So many months neglecting myself
focused on everyone’s mental health
(Including my self)
Trying to protect your mind from being brought to
places that is shouldn’t ought to
But it finds them, and gets caught too..
In those places and unrestrained spaces,
Your thoughts run wild,
like an unruly child
To darkness, hope, light and back again.
I’d like to plan my dreams.
With love, family, pleasure, ice-cream,
and everything in between.
All light and laughter,
happy ever after.
Not wistful, worn-out thoughts of what might have been.
