Asleep, the mind is off.

Sure, the dreams try to tell me otherwise, but in the dark state, I can only watch. And marvel.

But when I get up, I go to the rooms where the signs say think, think, think.

And mostly, I overthink, especially about the feelings that have no name until I think about it.

Is that a feeling? Or was it the thought that gave that feeling a shape, that, once applied can not be undone.

When is a feeling - or thought - something I should do something about?

I tell ya. Sometimes I believe I would’ve been better off if I stayed asleep.
