So it goes



Pondering my existence
Unsettled thoughts ,unsettling things
The mind wanders ,back and forth
Confusing thoughts slowly enter

Searching for a reason
Yearning for stability
My mind wanders ,inside and out
But yet I’m all alone

Unfulfilled,my life is empty
Unjust my life is cruel
Unacceptable,back and forth
My mind wanders
