wandering

My mind wanders...
I can't stop thinking.
Every little thing distracts me from what I should be doing.
Instead I think of what I want to be doing.

I want to talk to you,
I want to laugh with you.
I want to understand and be understood.

I know it is doomed from the start,
It always is
But I want to know more, 
I want to share more.

I always do this,
I find something nice, sweet, good, positive and I twist it.
I make it out to fail before it begins. 
I am so scared of it happening again and again,
I force it to fail before it starts.

I ask for nothing and expect nothing.
It's easier that way
But for once can I just maybe get something from it?
