Life vs. Living

Thoughts fight for priority in my head

Sometimes I feel unable to think at all

Around me, everything goes on

In circles, until I feel dizzy with it all.

I want to take a break from Life

And concentrate on living, for a change

Stop feeling compelled by expectations

And just be ....be wild, be strange.

I wonder if it can be done?

Does it require a physical move?

Can I disconnect from the familiar

Without really changing groove?

Not have anyone asking

Or telling me what to do.

Not have to advise anyone

Nor tell them what to do.
