I reluctantly forgo
my own need and desire
to create reason
out of madness.
my own need and desire
to create reason
out of madness.
It is when I refrain
from playful musings
that the seriousness
of my own unhappiness
sneaks up on me —
an ominous shadow
— apathetic and foreboding.

Desist, black mood —
I resist your call
and subtle attempts
to trap me in
resentment.
I resist your call
and subtle attempts
to trap me in
resentment.
I waive my rights
to be morose
and relinquish
all attempts
to control negativity.
to be morose
and relinquish

With determination,
I quit the trappings
of depression
and find courage
to seek joy and meaning
in life represented.
I quit the trappings
of depression
and find courage
to seek joy and meaning
in life represented.
I abandon myself
to simple creativity
and settle into quiet awe
of birthing new ideas
in anticipated glee.
to simple creativity
and settle into quiet awe
of birthing new ideas
in anticipated glee.
Serendipity sits
in silent queue
waiting for opportune moments
to appear and be recognized.
in silent queue
waiting for opportune moments
to appear and be recognized.
I give up and give in
to the Universal pull
that carries me forward
on urges of creative flow.
to the Universal pull
that carries me forward
on urges of creative flow.
Unobstructed,
I am free.
I am free.
