Chaotic Thoughts

I think a lot in my head 
I wish I could just go to bed 
Blinded by thoughts and emotions 
The seas of thunder and errosion
The crickets seep into the ears 
Blinded by the emotional tears 
My brain is exhausted and toasting 
My head spinning like it’s roasting 
These thoughts I can’t stop
Accelerating to the very top
My patience for this is wearing thin 
I itch and peal my skin 
I want to get out of this horrid body 
Dragged through despair becoming knotty
Though I hate living in this flesh 
I also hate my intrusive mesh
Drowning in my own Delusion 
Nothing can keep up my illusion 
The smiles are all fake 
At any moment I might break

I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist,and I’d love to discuss the possibility of bringing this poem to life if you're ever interested.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
