Don&#039;t stress over what you can&#039;t control; it&#039;s not worth it. <br /> Stay positive.<br /> Let go, let God.

I sit here with nothing but time,
wasted on
Time that fades in
a matter of seconds.
Seconds of faded
Matter
with no direction,
a lost perception,
this is the mind’s infection;

The mind’s flame,
at a constant orange glow.
Burns,
And burns until
a blue spark
sets the flame free,
A wild fire free
With untamable blue heat.
Uproar,
Chaos,
Genius.
