I try to shush my mind
and find a Little peace
but my mind’s a riot,
fulL of words and phrases
liKe a bunch of IncompLete mazes.
i keep puLling My hair.
i can’t do anYthing about it.
i dread cloSing my eyes.
i keep hEaring everything.
i keep teLling my selF to brush it off.
i’m scared and crazy unprepared
for what tonigHt has in mind.
i’m alone in the darknEss.
i can’t Live like this.
Please.
the monsters are not under my bed.
the monsters are inside my head.
