Just a Thought

At some point in life,
Everyone has crazy thoughts.
No use denying it,
We've all had them.

Thoughts that are out of the norm.
Thoughts you wish you never had.
Thoughts that make your heart lift.
Thoughts that simply get you through the day.

I've had a lot of thoughts lately.
Pleasant ones, sad ones.
Creative thoughts, lazy thoughts.
Some thoughts only I understand.

I'd love to see Chicago.
I spend too much money on food.
No one seems to call me anymore.
I can't remember where I put my keys.

Imagining my dream concert.
Remembering to brush my teeth.
Staying up too late.
Wishing I had more chocolate.

What if I just ran away?
Why can't I play that solo?
What movie did she play in?
How did I get this bruise?

My thoughts have been everywhere.
My mind and body are stuck.
Some of my thoughts are useless.
Lack of maturity binds the others.

Eventually my thoughts will lead my life.
Perhaps now is better than later.
Thoughts are better when they're released.
Think until you get where you want to be.

Think until your thoughts are deep.
Think until you fall asleep.
