Distraction

What it is you do

By J.W. BairdPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

Do you know what it is you do for me

I am a mind full of chaos

Stressing over everything

The thoughts in my head they never stop

Running this way 

And then that way

Constantly keeping me up

Tormenting me day and night

I imagine maybe peace just for a minute

One day oh how I pray

Nothingness will find me

surreal poetry

About the Creator

J.W. Baird

Who Am I?

I keep asking myself. I spent half of my life as a single mother. Pushing myself to be the strong independent individual that I have always been. My kids have grown and my life seems turned upside down.

I now search to find myself!
