One thought becomes several and so on. I can't think clearly, nothing make sense. The world has turned upside down, or I am not right side up. I try to cry, only to find myself laughing. Screams turn to smiles, joy turns to anger. I don't know where I am going. My mind and heart collide, neither knowing which way to turn. I am lost in this world. No road signs to show me the way. I am alone, I see that now. I know there is no escaping this knot that has become my life. The more I struggle the more tangled it becomes. I see no escape, no freedom from these tangled feelings. I feel powerless, swept away in the river of life. No matter how much thrashing I do, I still will always drown. I can see no help on shore, only the tangle of memories and emotions. Why can't I escape this knot of lies and truths? Why does everything end in a place I never wanted to go? Why can't everything unwind and make sense again.

My mind is a never ending knot. Moving this way and that way. One thought becomes several and so on. I can't think clearly, nothing make sense. The world has turned upside down, or I am not right side up. I try to cry, only to find myself laughing. Screams turn to smiles, joy turns to anger. I don't know where I am going. My mind and heart collide, neither knowing which way to turn. I am lost in this world. No road signs to show me the way. I am alone, I see that now. I know there is no escaping this knot that has become my life. The more I struggle the more tangled it becomes. I see no escape, no freedom from these tangled feelings. I feel powerless, swept away in the river of life. No matter how much thrashing I do, I still will always drown. I can see no help on shore, only the tangle of memories and emotions. Why can't I escape this knot of lies and truths? Why does everything end in a place I never wanted to go? Why can't everything unwind and make sense again.
