The Mind Poem by Monica Money

The Mind

Rating: 5.0


The mind is a battlefield they say.

What does that even mean?

Some say the mind is troubled.

Some say the mind is good.

Which side am I supposed to believe?

The mind is tricky sometimes.

It can also trick you into doing things

That is not oh so great.

One day it is calm.

The next it is full of racing thoughts.

When that does happen,

It is sometimes hard to control.

Like comparing yourself to others,

Which it not very good as I may say.

The mind is like a warzone,

That people have to fight to get out.

But do they really fight,

Or do they stay?

The mind is a battlefield they say.

Worry, Guilt, and Anxiety.

Thoughts that are not so great.

It is a cycle, as I may add.

But instead this shows

The mind is battlefield.

Now that I know it is...

What about you?

Do you believe it is?

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
The mind makes us do things that we don't necessarily know we could do. Mostly the mind tells us to do either good or bad. Do good. Listen to the good rather than the bad.

Worry, Guilt, and Anxiety. Thoughts that are not so great. It is a cycle, as I may add. But instead this shows The mind is battlefield. Beautiful. A nice and thorough analysis of the human mind. I love your typical style and this stuff. Thanks for sharing the poem. Subhas
