Swimming in a Sea of Thought

Swimming in a Sea of Thought

A Poem by Becky
"

Thinking about thinking :)

"

So many thought swimming through my head,
I have to write this one with my eyes closed.
Because opening them is too painful sometimes.
The thought of missing even one of these thoughts,
Makes me fear opening my eyes.
Why can’t I just sit here with my eyes closed forever?
Because these thought won’t let me sit here and do nothing.
These thoughts are of great things.
Of things that could be.
If only I could find the strength and do them.
These thoughts go nearly every direction,
Mapping them out seems impossible.
But as crazy,
And as out there as these thoughts are,
They seem completely rational.
They seem like the only thing that matters in the world right now.
Each and ever one of them.
Swimming in this sea of thought can be difficult at times.
Not even I always understand them.
Even when I don’t understand them I love them.
They inspire me,
And how can I not love inspiration?
Sometimes I forget how many things I love.
But my thoughts always remind me that there is still love.
That I do still love more things than I’m even aware of.
I love these thoughts,
I love these words.
I love those who will read them.
I love those who will understand them.
I love the sun,
And I love the moon.
I love the way this world could be if only we’d let it.
I love that these words may inspire ideas.
And I love loving it all.
So many thoughts,
So many reasons,
So many directions.
Sometimes seems like more than one person can handle alone.
But I’m not handling these alone.
So many others share the burden.
They may not understand it,
But they share it.
And the ones that do understand are the greatest helps of all.
If these thought can reach just one person,
And trigger a feeling of recognition,
And fond familiarity in the words I write.
That’s enough.
If that one person can read this,
And feel comfort.
I’ve done all I’ve ever needed to do.
To you who understand this,
To you who travel the same road,
To you who swim in the sea of idea with me,
I love you most of all.

These are all fabulous statements,
and peices of poems in my mind;
But it dosn't seem to fall together.
However, great words!
Keep writing!
