It's a Mental Thing



Channeling my inner thoughts
I questioned my purpose
Am I supposed to do this?
I want familiarity
Comfort and security
Yet, I am bored
Passion is seeping through my mind
My heart is craving more than what I offer it
It needs exposure
It needs to be loved
Yet, my thoughts think its best to be covered
with nostalgia and imaginary problems
