Overwhelming Moment

by Nicole M. - Gemini

This is how thinking get's me into trouble...

Awake in the middle of the night
Or just sitting in the daylight
This mind starts working
And it goes off
On it's own.

It starts by looking at the sky
Trying to grasp
What it would be like
Up there.
It then starts to ponder
The actual distance of everything
Now the question is
Is there an end?
But how could there be an end to the universe? I mean, doesn't it just go on forever and forever.  Could you even imagine what the end would look like anyway?  Like a cosmic wall just THERE! How could there NOT be something on the otherside?  Maybe it is....maybe it's the past, or is it just white, but then it wouldn't be then end, now would it.  Or like that one philosopher said, it's all circular, and it you keep going in one direction, you'll just eventually end up where you began.  So the universe is just one big ball then.... 

BREATH!

I tell myself
once again
Why contemplate such things?
So I move on
The mind a little exhausted
But none the less...

My mind now takes on
Something so very simple
or so it thinks
Solving this little problem that we have.
The anger is flowing
and emotions running high
It was said who cares what you think
Surely not I.
But if you didn't care what I though, why would you be bothered so much?  I just don't care about you or if you care if I care that you care.  So why am I making such a big deal?  To get my point across, of course.  Why do you want to get your point across if you don't care, and want none of that attention.  Alright, I'll just give you permission to do whatever you want, because I just don't care..

STOP!

I tell myself once more
Some arguements just have no end
There's just some aspects of life
That have no beginning
and ending points.
