Jack 22-43

Not sure what goes on in my mind Doubt and inadequacy are all I seem to find I much prefer when my head is quiet When darkness descends my mind runs riot My tiredness is not through lack of sleep It’s in my head and runs far too deep Voices in my head, they’re loud and clear Not always saying what I want to hear At times when things are not working for me I try to be positive but inside myself I disagree Sometimes doesn’t matter what I think or say I know what’s coming is another negative day Start feeling crazy and get real mad Retreat inside myself just feeling sad Madness, wondering if I should carry on Thinking, perhaps it’s better if I was gone This poison running around in my head Needs to be written but not thought or said
