Being overwhelmed is not a rainbow of fun,
It is not a peaceful morning at yoga,
Or a peaceful lake in front of you.
It's not as calming as a fish.
Being overwhelmed is a blank canvas,
Cruising through the streets late at night in your new car,one of the greatest feelings I'll tell you.Could it be because we both know what could come out of this.
"I'm fine" is a phrase that everyone knows all too well
A phrase used as a mask to deceive those
who were daring enough to ask
"Are you okay?"

Little soldier, march on.

And dreary
And cold
Through the gauntlet of expression and conformity,
Of G notes and B naturals,
Of passion and emptiness,
The thing I’m most superficial about
Is my own uniqueness
When I was a little kid
It was important to me
That I’d pick a different color or number
I
Force myself
To read other people's poems
So that my mind will
Be forced to fill the holes which my
Heart is afraid of
