Grasping, groping, grabbing
Clinging, clasping, holding
An idea in mind
I can't let it go
~
Even when it burns
I just grip tighter
Slips through my fingers
Drives me mad
~
Mind tossing and turning
Unable to sleep
Till words on the paper
Reflect the thought in my mind
~
Thoughts coming, thoughts going
Trains in the night
Lost the second
Something shiny comes to sight
~
It's why I try to hold
Every thought that comes to mind
Notepads filled with thoughts
Dozens of abandoned ideas
~
Grasping, clinging
Groping, clasping
Grabbing, holding
All things that drift to mind
Till the paper reflects the inside
Ramblings pulled from thoughts drifting through my head. I hope you enjoyed them for what they are. If you did please like, subscribe, and feel free to leave a tip. Till next time.
