What Now

Mental Journey
I’ve accomplished all the tasks I set
My hobbies complete, I got all I can get,
New science mirrors what I have done,
New break throughs I wish would come

Writing stories will no longer please
Sitting untouched because no one reads
My improvement plans for which my family yearn
Wait for the money I never will earn,

Exercise and trips, sound nice when said,
But not when your loved ones are depressed in bed.
I need something new that can save my mind
So I can give my family some joy to find

But when nothing you see comes as a surprise
When nothing makes them want to open their eyes
When your soul shrinks from the coming storm
And the clouds no longer respond to Thor
When no one can seem to tell you how
What Now?

Mental Journey

I am on a journey of the mind. Contemplating the universe on every scale, and doing a complete introspective exploration. I may never be a literary academic, but I share my humble thoughts in hope that they may inspire others.
