Mind is reluctant to be alright
though I am trying to console
Its never easy to control
I am trying to sleep
but It chose to be
Up all night :
Thinking & sinking in thoughts
that wreck all of me in no time
Arguments in my head
they fought to win
I am trying to settle this
before it turns into a sin
I feel exhausted
At times I'm stupidly selfish
Just to make sure ,
I am alright & pleased
or unknowingly reckless
to keep this situation in hand
Mind finds it difficult
Its stuck in fantasy
Magical land where
everything's perfect
But doesnt even know
Life is real & imperfect
It takes lot of effort to handle
these little imperfections
Mind is confused
Poor mind, Its hurt
It believes in fictional fantasy
& reality can't convince it
Mind is disturbed all day
even straight lines
seems like scribbled all way
Even open doors
Seems like its closed
thoughts tricks it with
unseen lock of mere hopelessness
I beg you to be silent
Oh ,dear mind
You are alright
You must be !
Stable and strong
You are my strength
that handles any storms
Just make yourself calm
& blissful than ever
