Restless mind

Wandering eyes,
restless mind
jumbled thoughts and silent cries

Lightening speed,
flashing lights
words and sounds rushing by

What are they saying?
I do not know
I cannot make out a single sound

They’re speeding up,
I can’t keep track
they’re getting too loud, they need to stop!

My hands fly out
I try to reach
but they slip right through my fingertips

Rushing, flashing, screaming
they won’t slow down
they’ll never stop

As I lie still with
wandering eyes and a restless mind

I haven’t written anything like this in years. It’s not good and I know it, but I had to get it out, and apparently that also means the internet. So here we are. Does anyone still use this site? Is anyone here?
