Thoughts...

Rain drops on the window pane

are like the thoughts in my brain

constantly dripping, always moving

sometimes I wish for wiper blades

to help rid my mind of the thoughts that weigh

have you ever been somewhere with so much to say

but you don't say a thing at least not like you wanted

the mind replays the event somehow you're haunted

or there is deafening silence the type that makes you want to shout

you open your mouth yet no words come out

drowning in our thoughts sounds impossible

there is no way that is remotely logical

yet the thoughts fall through your head as in a downpour

slipping and sliding they keep on coming

thoughts without voice there is always a choice

If you keep them inside will they just roll up and die

hardly, you will probably just end up feeling sorry

that you did not express what was burning on your chest

sometimes the greatest risk is the one not taken

we're too scared of a fall, not trusting the One above all

that opportunity before you has a purpose behind it

but maybe you will never see it unless you deny yourself

and take a leap and remember that you are one of His sheep

the Lord will protect you through every decision

and everything that ever happens has a reason

with that knowledge in your head the need for wiper blades is dead

so your brain may feel like a storm now and then

just remember to place your trust in Him
