The deluded mind

Floating from a dream scape to nightmare All in a flash
All the twists and turns from pleasure to insanity
You pray for an escape but it never appears
Always wondering what the unknown has in store for you
You continue to search the darkness
Then your guiding light shines through
Almost 2am sitting in a hotel room vanquishing my thoughts
clearing my head
destroying my ears with the sweet sounds of bass
Silence
We already had this talk numerous times before
But why is my mind plagued this night?
Fear
What do I have to be so afraid of?
Taking deep breathes
And a sip of my water I type
crunch on a cookie watching the crumbs hit he ground
I stop my hands from shaking
Relax
It's all in your mind
There's nothing there
Stop overthinking
Overanalyzing this
Halt
Go no further
for my mind runs
My brain races
Sleep my mortal enemy.
I return to my bass, searching for the end of this
mortal attack of my senses
for only I can end this
