Running
Stricken by madness
Without order
Through my head
These thoughts
Make no sense
Can't think
Don't know what to do
Foggy-minded
Plagued by insanity
Helpless

And then
And then

There is calm
My thoughts return
To their place
I can think
Clearly now
As I quietly
Take it in

Music

Sometimes
It's my only link
To sanity

Music... You know... That thing that helps me cope with, well, everything.
