I Was Really Bored.

Sinking again

My surroundings drift away

No more cluttered room

No more stressful tasks

Just emptiness

Just the emptiness of my bored mind

Dark and empty

But this is only temporary


Thoughts come pouring in

Like wind through an newly opened window

They surround me entirely before I can even react

They organize themselves like chapters in a book

A book that gets deeper and deeper in every line

And every chapter

And no matter how hard I try,

I can never put down this book,

For this book is inside me

This book IS me

And I can not ignore myself


The book begins with one simple idea

Then moves to another

Then another

Then another

I can feel myself sinking

Deeper

Deeper

Deeper

Until there is no where to go

As l sink into my deepest fears

Surrounded by darkness and death

There is no where I can go, but deeper

Toward the beacon of light that is the core

My core

The core of my existence

My true purpose

But I can never reach it


I feel myself being pulled back by a great force

Out of darkness and death

Out of deep thoughts

Out of simpler ideas

Out into the emptiness of my bored mind


I open my eyes

I am back in my cluttered room

I had never left

I sigh as I look over the stressful tasks unfinished
