just like me

hello friend
you’re just like me huh
trapped in these thought spirals
day after day, minute by minute

one second you’re here
the next you’re gone
in some other world
dissimilar from our own

the 1-2-3s, the counting, the noting
it can all help
but befriend that loud voice
the one that carries you away

a certain mystical sense about it
like when? or how? or even, why?
be kind, my mind
for I am just here to exist and observe
