Pull The Weeds

Weeds
Pull them
Your mind going 100 miles an hour
Your hands aren't busy.
But your mind is sour
When your shaking from thoughts
Giving you anxiety and making your heart stop
Pull the weeds
About the past
About the present
About the future
Pull the weeds
Use your bare hands
Feel them
Feel each tug of the root
The snap from deep in the ground
Cutting out the source
Pull the weeds
Pull your 100 mile an hour thoughts
Take each weed
Pull each thought
Spend time with each thought
Feel emotion with each thought
Process each thought
Remember ....
Then let go
Pull the weed
Make peace with the weed
Understand why it's there
Why you left it to grow
To thrive while your bare
Pull the weed
Release the thoughts
Release the emotions
Pull the weed
They no longer serve you
They never had
Instead they consumed you
They held on to your past
They control your present
And they hinder your future
Pull the all the weeds
You no longer need them
Plant new seeds
And be the sun that feeds them
Pull the weeds
