Arrested Thoughts

You have come too far... To surround yourself in fear. Shackled and attacked by thoughts, Taught by those close and near. Remove them from your mindset now! Don't allow to become imprisoned... Or bow down to confining decisions! Break free and climb to your higher self. Get rid of those thoughts, Others have brought and dealt! Leaving you with feelings... You alone seem to have felt! Eliminate a fate not yours. Adore your mind and explore new shores! Cast away what had limited you. Your happiness you can and will pursue! Believe you deserve a better view. And watch the beauty of your life come through! Arrest your thoughts... That's what you ought to do! If you must be a prisoner, Become warden of a love that's due! Locked and safe... Protected from the blues! Let others find comfort in pity! Those scenes are not for you! With arrested thoughts... Take back what you own! Your mind is YOUR castle, And let that be known!
