How does the mind bend at its breaking point? Written after a friend's breakdown.
Where does the mind bend at its breaking point?
Does it go to find a lost dream
Or find the logic gone out of joint?

How does the mind find a stable peace within?
Does it find a faith to rest upon
Or stumble over its knowledge once again?

When does the mind rest from its burden of work?
Does it find a way to get help
Or keep stomping, drudging through the murk?

What does the mind do when all is quiet around?
Does it find solace in the peace
Or struggle and reach to find a nagging sound?

Why does the mind reach beyond what we see?
Does it grab it just to have it
Or search for its lone purpose just to suit me?

Who can grab the mind and expand it to eternity?
Does He need to be invisible
Or take up His holy temple in you and me?
