state of mind

there are days
when sunshine rules my mood
when expectation is rife
and hope my only food

there are days
when problems don't exist
inhibitions not around
opportunities not missed

there are days
when I don't seem to care
what people think of me
but those days are rare

then there are days
when I can't seem to raise
this blanket of despair
receding in life's maze

days, not unlike others,
when initiative is dead
all actions aborted
fear in my head

on days like that
I'm willing to let go
all that keeps me sane
a devastating flow

the journey thus begun
the end of which I do not know,
is what I fear most
where am I to go?
