So many thoughts cloud my head
Keeping me lying awake at night; no sleep,
Just tossing and turning in my bed.
The stress just fills up my entire mind.
I’m on the verge of breaking; I can’t handle this.
It’s only a matter of time.
All my fears, mistakes and regrets,
Those are what haunt me when I want to think least.
They keep me from rest.
I close my eyes to wish the pain away,
Mentally cleaning everything; empty canvas awaits.
Nothing in here can stay.
I open my eyes, feeling slightly better.
Then it happens once more; it all comes flooding back in,
My thoughts worse than ever.
Eventually I’ll fall asleep in the late hours.
I tried to rid my brain of the pain; I couldn’t do it.
I wish I had that superpower.
