Mood Swings

I have forgotten how to write  That used to be me Words lost despite  Its all I used to be Days fly past, yet time doesn't stir Thinking, feeling, emotions all Fleeing in the blur Of instant recall We're losing connections In this age of connectivity With GPS for directions But not for humanity In this quest for achievement Within insatiable scarcity  Piling heartache  And losing clarity  So I search pen in hand Fighting with my head For words like grains of sand Chasing meaning that's fled

As the darkness of the night Envelopes the cacophony of life Thoughts and feelings hidden In your mind are rife  Introspection and caution Begin to make you wary Ghosts that you laid to rest Begin telling their story Is happiness an illusion That is created in your mind Or to be found everywhere Just fear making you blind It's impermanence is scary And it's life so fleeting The feeling more precious With each encounter and meeting You hold tight grips Still slips like grains of sand Making the illusion of happiness Even more grand Unanswered questions Dense clouds of doubt Where do you go happiness Let me find your whereabouts
