I Keep Too Many Things to Myself
A storm of thoughts in my mind
Sowed seeds of chaos in my soul
Outside, I hold a shell of serenity
To hide the confusion lately sowed
The fast currents of days carry me away
Pulling me in different directions
Exigent matters threaten to sweep me
Into a swirl of tough moments and moods
If only I could wake up in the mornings
And stand on truths like stones in a river
That could lead me across the chaos in life
I could use a few of those steppingstones.

If only I could wake up in the mornings
And stand on truths like stones in a river
