Preoccupied

Time keeps on passing where days seem to get shorter and shorter
Realizing more and more it's time to get my house in order
With so much noise in my head, sometimes I can't think
Feels like I am standing in quick sand --- slowly I begin to sink
Just to be preoccupied with the everyday non-sense I wish to break free
Causes of the all around chaos is making it hard to see
Precious moments coming and going --- fading with time
Not fully living life is truly a crime
Looking for that serene place where my preoccupation no longer traps my mind
Refusal I vow to spend the rest of my eternity being blind
So I write for clarity --- hopes for release
  Find my mind's quiet space; there, the gift of inner peace
