Think – Written Thursday 5th September 1996 (Aged 21)

Think

when i think and i think hard
i know that i can see
yes, my eyes re poor
but my mind is free
and it has an open door
when i taste what i need
there isn’t a thing to stop me
but i know with scant modesty
that my gift is my curse
my strongest trait,
is also my most fatal flaw
but i know it,
and i know it is what makes me
it’s the same for so many people
when those people think,
they know that’s true
an out pouring of creativity
and a laid back attitude
they are the things that help me see
self obsessed and vain
but we shall never wane
as long as we think
