One State
by Kevin C. Krinke
Where do I stop?
Where do I begin?
Somewhere at the top
Or somewhere within?Sometime ago
I questioned myself
I had to let go
To hold onto my healthThese dreams I have
Guide me in space
Through time I drive
To a special placeAn instance of mind
With thoughts I trace
Myself I’ve defined
In effortless graceEverything I’ve done
I’ve laced with my soul
Yet not everyone
Understands my goalI may be older
Than my years let on
Still need a shoulder
That I can lean onI am but one
In this human race
A state undone
With my soul as laceA madness to share
The thoughts insane
With you out there
My heart is now tame
