thoughts

I need a pen and paper

to write down all my thoughts... 

they're racing and clawing around 

simply waiting to be caught...

as I'm writing down these words,

my thoughts are racing on... 

and before I finish a single verse...

the thoughts I had are gone. 

easily replaced with sadness,

or loneliness as well...

my mind is racing faster, 

never a thought to simply dwell...

the thoughts are screaming louder

I can hardly hear a sound,

grabbing my head and screaming out

as I'm falling to the ground.

Laying here in darkness...

alone with my thoughts...

living with this constant war,

it appears that I have lost//

Hello to a fellow overthinking Maddie. I love this piece, and you somehow managed to illustrate the concept perfectly- while maintaining a rhythm scheme?!?! What sort of brilliance is that?!!?
Fondly,
Bell (really truly Maddie)
