  Disorganized Thoughts
  
  The watery refuge
  
  near the ocean,
  
  the sound of the surf
  
  is calming.
  
  A place where
  
  thoughts are allowed
  
  to float free.
  
  Released
  
  like a flock of birds,
  
  scattered into the sky
  
  enjoying themselves.
  
  Allowing the wind
  
  to blow them
  
  here and there,
  
  disorganised and unconscious.
  
  
  Paradoxical
  
  though it might sound
  
  producing disorganised thoughts
  
  is a most important activity
  .
  particularly necessary
  
  when too many elements
  
  are blocking the mind,
  
  piling up in compact bundles
  
  and petrifying all actions
  
  the only thing to do then
  
  is to open the head
  
  and let everything spill out.
  
  This happens effortlessly
  
  when near the waterside.

  "LIGHT"
  
  Light always shine
  in the back of my mind
  waiting to be seen
  
  I close it out
  it comes back bright
  not trying to blind me
  
  things whisper loud
  right at the core
  telling me to see
  
  I shut it out
  wanting not to believe
  but deep down I think I see
  
  I'm kidding myself
  not anyone else
  not wanting the hurt to be
  
  But I can't hide
  the truth inside
  no one really wants me
  
  Outcast I am
  no one plans
  for me to be around
  
  So dim the light
  come stand by me
  cuz you don't really see
