My Unconscious Self

 The empty part of me that cannot see

has the steering wheel and is driving 

Gone are my best intentions

cast away my logic

WANT

NEED

is all it feeds

If I ignore it,

I am consumed by it

so I try and sit still and be with it

for a second I see a reflection 

but the state of life drives on 

 as I get back into the swing of things

the weight of the empty makes my feet drag 

and my dreams restless

I need to keep moving but 

I don't want to drive off the cliff
