conflicting thoughts running around in my mind
No sense of peace
no agreement to each other they can find

A clash of thoughts
although calm I force myself to be
It really drives me crazy
but I don’t allow others any actions to see

Life does not have to be a bowl of cherries
but it does not have to be like hell
There are many paths to happiness
which one to take can be hard to tell

Finding myself wandering from time to time
deeply in a gaze
How do I handle such conflicting thoughts?
it is to my amaze

I am seriously thinking
when life gets us down like this
No need to get angry or mad
and walk or turn away and make a hiss

Take a deep breath my friend
and control the way you think
Find reason within your thoughts
before to a lower level you do sink

Conflicting Thoughts

Topic: abstract

Ranting & raving
conflicting thoughts running around in my mind
No sense of peace
no agreement to each other they can find

A clash of thoughts
although calm I force myself to be
It really drives me crazy
but I don’t allow others any actions to see

Life does not have to be a bowl of cherries
but it does not have to be like hell
There are many paths to happiness
which one to take can be hard to tell

Finding myself wandering from time to time

How do I handle such conflicting thoughts?
it is to my amaze

I am seriously thinking
when life gets us down like this
No need to get angry or mad
and walk or turn away and make a hiss

Take a deep breath my friend
and control the way you think
Find reason within your thoughts
before to a lower level you do sink

This was all the way nice.
The words in this passage moved me.
The sincerity is stark
and blast the bells of truth.

First, the topic made me think of swift perfect thoughts, and then of sorts down the line you move with no conflict at all. Thoughts like actions, practicing a math problem or reading through conflicting data to understand the best way to solve a problem. Then, I read this and realized some glaring truths we all face literally every day.
Thanks for the point about breathing in, it's wonderfully written how you seem to understand real kindness. It's something hard to say unless you've shared it. Grand empathy isn't so hard as all that, you wonderfully state.
You know people, and yourself well... that's what I get from this.

Thanks!

Peace!

As always what you feel is displayed on every line,
You always give people something to think about
Kudos for never being afraid to lay everything you feel bare
For me you are the voice of what so many go through and find hard to express. You let them know the are not alone
Another wonderful write
