The Mind

The Mind

A Poem by Krisna Chatelain
"

Thoughts

"
I believe in the mind 
 It's the light of your path 
 A guidance, A god 
 It's the inhumane sensation that let's you create an escape
 It's the mechanism and the secrets that it holds 
From your brightest days to your darkest nights 
It's the thought of thinking, of constantly thinking and analyzing everyone else's way of thinking and behaving. 
Wether it is good or bad behavior 
Wether it is the violence created by the same men who makes the rules and sets an example, 
 Or by the care and compassion of another towards an idea of a solution 
It is the life we live, living by the rules, created for us and by us 
Conforming to the betterment for the worst 
Consuming the world, cashing it, and leaving it rot under out feet thinking it’s ours to mistreat
 While our minds swallow the toxic waste from the food we eat to the brainwashing 
It is the mind And your control over it
 It is your cure to addiction 
 The answer to success 
 The key to happiness
 It is the little things that we love, 
The undefined appreciation for the pleasures of life, life as a whole and life on this earth.
It is indeed our emotions
 Our loss and our griefs, 
 Our constant disappointments
 The fears turned to anger 
 And the anger to violence, rather than Fears turned to passion
 The Passion to compassion
 It is the choices that you make on a everyday basis
 By the job you have to the suit you wear
 It is what you selfishly decide to do with your life, one life, the only life you got, 
While someone else's end is so sudden.
 It is again the importance you give to the meaningless and the amount of time spent spending on the material
 It is the blossom of matter
 The energy, The urge for connections
 It is your non acceptance of synchronization 
Your fear of life and death, and resurrection 
So much that your belief in god is higher that the belief in yourself 
You, that small grain of sand, that insignificant matter exist, and within you
 A universe of its own 
 Yes the mind, beautiful mind
 A mind that is understood and interpreted 
 A connection between energies 
 A spark of enlightenment,
 A smile 
 A touch, 
The acknowledgement of another 
 It is the mind, 
 The positive harmony in your life

This is the sort of poem that when first read, can seem to do no wrong.

Especially since the first time you read it, you have questions which need answered.

In fact, sometimes you have answers that you can't speak.

This poem both answered my questions and spoke my mind.

It revealed a core truth within myself, which I couldn't bring to surface.

Something so deep; unique, yet impersonal; that I could only speak in circles trying to explain.

If that is the intention of poetry, to bring to light the truth, then this poem has surely achieved that.

On the second read, I found it becomes more complex.

It answers more questions, and, it provokes new questions.

Questions regarding the existence of God, truth, and who you are as a writer.

After posting this, I will read it a third time, and believe it could only get better.

You are right. The mind control if we are happy or not.
"It is the mind,
The positive harmony in your life"
Content people find the good in the darkness. Hard to do. Can be done. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

Mind is everything. Very nicely written to show that everything you see or do goes through your mind and you are what your mind tells you and you can control your mind. :) Keep Dreaming.
