Sometimes…
      there are too many thoughts
      running round and round
      inside my head.

Sometimes…
      I feel so anxious
      I find it hard to focus
      on the task in front of me.

Sometimes…
      I get exhausted by the effort
      of forcing my conscious thoughts
      through the noise.

Sometimes…
      I just want to close the curtains,
      switch off the lights
      and lock the door.

Until…
      my spinning thoughts slow down
      to a manageable speed
      and my mind becomes quiet.
