A Trip Inside My Head
By Anna Garthwaite | Posted: Monday June 6, 2016
Some days
You have
A billion things to think about
Other days
The clouds clear
And you can’t think
Of a single thing
Some days
You worry yourself
Sick
Other days
You couldn’t come up
With a single damp thought
Some days
You want to stay
Alone
Coiled in a ball
Contemplating your
Broken life
Other days
Being alone
Is a felony
And living in the now
Is essential
Some days
Are bad days
Some days are good
We live
For the good days
We learn
On the bad days
As much
As we’d like it to
We can’t stop life
We can’t go back
And change mistakes
We can’t go back
And save the people
You didn’t want to lose
We can’t stop
We can only continue
We can’t fast forward
Or slow-motion
We can only move
At the speed
Of life
Some days
It’s in our favour
Other days
It’s not
Some days
We just need to stop
Other days
We can’t stop
It’s all we can do to run, to ramble
Some days
It’s all we can do to feel bad, sad, mad
Other days
All we’d want is to lighten the mood
Most days
Are good days
Some days
Are bad
We can’t change it
But there’s always a second chance
That goes
By the name of
Tomorrow
