DESECRATION OF THE MIND
Thinking of nothing,
or at least trying.
Thoughts always intrude on thoughtlessness,
making peace of mind impossible.
The mind never stops, never ends, never ceases to think.
It can sometimes forgive,
but can never forget.
Wishing for one thoughtless night,
one night of pure sleep,
free of dreams, free of nightmares, free of thinking,
trying to let go of everything, but failing at each attempt.
Concentrating on not concentrating on anything,
yet always concentrating on something.
Trying to clear your mind,
but having to think the thought of trying.
Falling victim to your mind’s own tricks,
to your minds own deception.
I think therefore I am
When I cease to think will I be no more?
Always thinking, always scrutinizing, always judging;
that is a part of existence.
But what I would do for one night of non-existence,
one night of not falling victim to my own hypocritical thoughts,
one peaceful night.
