Worries

Let’s get away.

Let’s leave this world behind.

Let’s do this all by shutting up our minds.

Let’s tell them to be quiet, with all their worries and doubts.

Let’s say “We’re not scared” even though we sometimes pout.

Let’s keep our thoughts in a box, hidden under the stairs.

But after we are done with this, Let’s take the poor minds out.

They will dance among the stars.

They will scream and shout.

It may be from anger, or just hungry excitement from being let out.

See this is the problem with hiding all your worries,

They grow, they fester, and turn into flurries.

And flurries fog your brain,

They confuse all of your insides,

So let’s take out our minds.

Let’s deal with our worries,

Let’s smile bravely and know that we will never get buried.
