One Day
A poem describing the color's of my mind
One day I'm a ruby in a sunset sky
One day I'm the sapphire dancing in the sea
One day I am the sun, as yellow as can be
One day I'm the gold as innocent as you
can see.
One day I'm greyer than the rain clouds following me
One day I am whiter than lightning could ever be
One day I am blacker than the storm that you can see
One day I am greener than the trees creating forestry.
One day I am as purple as the sheets on which I sleep
One day I am aqua as happy as I can be
One day I am as mauve as the lipstick that I wear
One day I am blusher, and people stop and stare.
Other days I am all colors that a rainbow can simply wear
Today I am me with nothing left to despair.

Arrested by Necessity
Do you have a favorite place to visit when you're overwhelmed by your thoughts? Do you get overwhelmed by your thoughts? I suppose not everyone experiences the paralyzation that occurs when too many decisions creep in. I get knots in my (ample) stomach that twist and turn into cramps. Within minutes, my pulse increases and I force myself to remain calm, but anxiety starts poking at my chest like a toddler attempting to wake his papa for a snack. The cause of my tension is lost by this time, and my focus turns to slowing my breathing, "staying present in the moment," and remembering where I am and why.
