Poem -
"Adrift"
Lost in a sea of thought
Stuck in a tiny boat
Full of heavy thoughts
Struggling to stay afloat
Mind in disarray
Mind begins to sway
Gets heavy everyday
No clue what to do but delay
Can not escape
Can not think straight
Can't articulate
Can't communicate
Shying away
Can not speak out
Running away
Can not reach out
Heavy feeling
Slowly sinking
Soul, lost
Mind, adrift

Favorite Stanza:Β
CAST " adrift, " to be set apart from the rest, is loneliness " personified " BUT is your predicament " set, in stone " ? YOU CAN " BREAK THE MOULD " and receive " The Verdict " you long for, to be accepted. Change is all ways, WITH US. You can " adapt to survive " the most hostile environment imaginable. Through efforts to learn. Not, " sinking, without a trace " !!!! :)
The right attitudes come from LIVING TO LEARN, AND LEARNING TO LIVE. With the majority verdict. Based on principles, defined by SOCIETIES CONVENTIONS.
In, your heart, you have to know what is right for you, and, for others. And, WHO IS COMING TO SAVE YOU !! When, all hope seems lost. Take stock, of what matters, and, what does not, to find FREEDOM,with forward-planning and insurances, " involved "....... to build a better mind-set. Anywhere at anytime.
BELIEVE IN BETTER. Not worse. Adapt, to make more of yourself. And, to LIVE !!!Β :)
