Midnight Thoughts

Six.

I used to say, let's get far
away from everything and
from everyone, in hope
that my world, my brain,
my unstoppable thoughts,
get over with already.

But, after that, nothing would
change, neither happen or do,
the same voices, the same laughs,
the same arguments,
the same choices.

It was as if I used to
say "Let's get away from,
me."

Because I am my voice,
I am what I choose, I
am the words that I choose
to speak as a shield
that I protect myself from
in my arguments, I am how
I laugh, and I am my
very, very own thoughts.
