Compartmentalisation
Corrupt my thoughts, place out of sight
Onwards I march without troubles
March march march, it's all fine
Panic as it turns out it's not fine at all
Attempt to push out thoughts that upset
Retreat as far as I can from past events
Treat thoughts as surplus to requirements
Make them squish as small as I can
Entangled, surely not, they were all boxed up
Now what do I do when jumped out at me
Turn around thoughts, leave me alone
Allowances were made but you've done me in
Leave immediately or hide in plain sight
I will ignore you
Since you are here, let's chat
Although you hide you have something to say
Tell me if it helps
I don't understand why I hid, that's not so bad
Only facing your problems really works
Now to get on with living
