The Mind

Swift, fast, blinding
My mind’s the turn tables
And my thoughts they do the rhyming
Spinning, screeching, spinning, never stopping
Overwhelming me I’m far out in the deep end
Is it me or am I drowning or maybe I’m dreaming but I can’t swim
Will I drown or will I learn
Will I crash or will I burn?
Will I save myself or blame myself
Let these thoughts bring me down or rise above
Overwhelmed
Make it, break it, or take it?
Beat the odds and make it
Be the odds and break it
Or f*ck the odds and take it because this feeling I can’t shake it destined to be more than your definition of greatness
Feeling wait listed because the wait ain’t all that great
My minds producing the music making me quiver making me shake
I feel like I’m in a deep sleep but really I’m awake
What do I do now.. do I accelerate or brake, edit that part, throw this in or do I backspace delete that and erase?
There’s no telling so I’m life sailing
the waters getting deeper but to me there’s no failing
Push harder, go harder, work harder
Life has it’s downfalls
The goal is only to go further
Living in the here and now my thoughts are deep but God willing they won’t make me drown
Staying above sea level is a struggle and with each struggle I come out stronger and encouraged
Fighting this battle we call life and
To ensure you come out on top
first and foremost get your mind right….

Thanks for reading, Be Blessed & Stay Humble.

If given the chance, everyone has a story to tell. My name is Breyana I'jae, I am a 25 year old Temple University Psychology graduate, blogger, visionary, artist, creator, self published author, mama, jack of all trades, and lover of many things. 
When I first started this blog in 2013 my goal was to share My Story in hopes of inspiring someone else, I didn't know where it would go, how people would perceive it or what to really do, I just know I lived by the motto, Uplift, Empower, & Inspire.

While those goals still remain my blog will now be a place to promote self-love and self-care but that's not all. Come take a look to see what it offers.
