Thoughts

Thoughts keep me up at night,

they linger in my mind.

I try to push them away,

And the end result is never what I wanted. They come pounding and screaming even louder than before.

If you tell them to leave, and let you sleep, they get mad and just play on repeat . It's a never ending cycle , and I stay awake for hours. They finally get tired , after torturing me all night. Once they see I can hardly hold on any longer, they slowly disappear into nothing , and I'll awake the next morning have forgotten all about it, and then the next night will come around .. And thoughts will overcrowd me.
