Thoughts swirling, a constant stream,

In my mind, a vivid dream.

Overthinking, a familiar plight,

As thoughts dance, day and night.

 

Each idea, a whirlwind of its own,

A carousel of thoughts, endlessly thrown.

Analyzing, dissecting, never at ease,

Caught in a web of mental unease.

 

But amidst the chaos, a lesson I've learned,  

To let go, and let my thoughts adjourn.

For in the quiet, clarity will find,

A peaceful state, a tranquil mind.

 

So I'll take a breath, and let go of the rush,

Embrace the stillness, in silence I'll hush.

For in the space between thoughts, I'll find,

A peacefulness that eases my mind.
