Pressure builds
Reality fades
Brain clogged up
Nothing left to gain
.
A continuous flow
Of subliminal messages
Never enough
Living up to external images
.
Taking on more than what is
Frantic
Exhausted
The future takes hold
Controlled
Haunted
.
Expectations win
Reality takes a seat
No time to think
Heart skips a beat
.
But when you bring it back
And realise you can’t do it all
All you have to do
Is let go,
Or fall
.
Fall into each moment
Allow thoughts to pass
All you have is now.
Be patient,
Don’t go too fast.
