Evasion

Mindlessly mindful.

 

                     That’s a state of being.

 

When you have no control,

Lost to the flight of a full brain,

An anxious soul in the future,

Not the present.

 

A lack of focus that engulfs the being.

Yes,

Both mind and soul.

 

Too many thoughts,

Too many hurts,

The weight already bearing on the pump

That keeps you alive.

 

The heart that is screaming

 

Because the future hurt,

Has bled

​

Into now.
