Do you think there is a heaven
for all my bad thoughts?
Do they congregate on clouds
Comparing who is the worst?
Do the lingering thoughts of pain
pin down the ones of sorrow?
Do the big hulking ones that bully others
laugh from a distant cloud
over at the disappointed ones?
Thousands of thoughts,
fighting for a place to rest
while thousands left in my mind
search for their place to nest.
