Positively charged

How my brain works?

There are many thoughts at the beginning

Each of them valiantly fighting to be visible

Oscillating around the circle

Every one of them creating contrasting charges

Although I’m supposed to be in charge of them

Yet without any knowledge about it

For years

Leaving myself in the dark ages of shame

Each thought is trying to grab my attention

With all the gold, silver, black, and also any pastel colour

Counting on the similarity to me

At the time of speaking

Taking into account my circumstances, emotions

Gender, mood, past, tiredness, and a lot of troubles

The same as the success

Dragging me down if it was someone else’s whim playing around

Before I get any far

Consciously choosing clown’s disguise

To parade in front of anyone

Who doesn’t believe what I'm saying
