The mind reflects and corrects

I set I think,
What's on my mind
Do I go in? 
What will I find? 

Some control
I once had lost
Words spoken harshly
At some high cost

Thoughts so stressed
No answers given
Just working through
The days I'm living

What looks right?
What seems wrong?
Seconds tick by
And moments are long.

The storms of the mind
Roll through with the wind
And I take all the damage 
The world seems to send

I rebuild all the things
Inside that were good
With imaginary nails
And hammers and wood

Under construction
In progress you see
Of the things that I do
And the man I will be

I make mistakes
I sometimes think bad
I get real impulsive 
We all do, it's sad

But that's part of life 
To do wrong and then know it
To correct how you act
Then go out there and show it

The mind is the place 
You can fix what ain't right
Not with pride but humility
Not with darkness but light
