Disconnected Thoughts

I’ve been locked in a room of ill-content

Flowers bloom on my cheeks

Call them roses if you wish

My tears bring new life to the world

Disconnected thoughts take flight

We own the night

With our anger and contempt

Make way

A new day draws near

Spread your wings

Lest your chance disappear

Reach

And capture a moment

Save a soul

As disconnected thoughts take flight

Now we claim the night

Love it

Need it

All to make us whole again

    I really loved it. It made having disconnected thoughts sound romantic lmao. But u feel crazy really, when u have them. So love that irony.

      This was literally my day. I couldn’t get anything done and my head was all over the place.
