Round and round, a spinning whirlwind in my head.
I ask myself time and time again, why do I torment myself?
I am only human, with emotions and bare bones.
Why do I trap myself in a cage?
I must learn to let go of people, places and things that no longer bring me blissful happiness.
It seems it is all within my listless mind.
I am just a vessel that embodies an undying soul that yearns for more meaning on this earth.
I am only human with unlimited wants and desires, but I must let go before it consumes my soul.
“Let go” is my daily incantation to survive this chaotic world.
