Automagically

I have been thinking too much
afraid of being who I am not
I have been trying too hard
while I should have let the world roam free
it takes time to lose yourself automagically

----------------------

I have a a habit to think too much. “Not fully conscious yet”, you may say and you’re right, I know. That makes me conscious of being unconscious. See, I am thinking too much, creating endless loops.

My challenge is to learn to let go and quiet my mind from wanting to solve puzzles. To let my emotions escape more out of their cage (the right side of my brain). This is why I need my art, it makes me quiet, open and emotional in a way that I want to share with you.
