Circles

Darting in circles
Trying to find a way out
Screaming till bleeding
Need to find a way out

Hit me like bullets
And you bleed me out
From two different planets
It’s a wonder, our camaraderie
Stifle my gasps
Like a mouse getting trapped

Cranium abounding with what ifs and
Myths, they pierce me more than reality
Over-thinking things is my specialty
Teeming with fables wish I could rid myself
Of the false thoughts
I must be taught
To distinguish fact from fiction
My vernacular, my diction
My infinitesimal jurisdiction
Can’t measure up
So I wait to grow up

Blindfolded, the searing sting
Getting tossed around in the center of the ring
Where I am now I can hear everything
Toss me that way, I’ll bounce back another
I’ll find out what I need
I’ll go undercover

Toss me in the trash bin
Find delight in the boat I'm in
Uncompromising situations
I'm a mastermind
Been down that road before
Kick me down, then watch me soar
