Negativity not Welcome

No place for negativity in my mind-
I'll just try & leave that all behind.
Struggling within to let it all go-
So many things, no one can know.
Secrets I keep_ scenarios I'll never tell-
Not disclosing the fact I've lived through Hell.
Been there & back, seems I'm back there again-
Continuously paying the price for my sins.
I'm trying not to be pessimistic & clear off the table-
About to cross the line of being mentally stable. 
I can't allow myself to break into tiny pieces-
I won't let that happen,  I'll smooth out the creases.
No place for negativity in my mind-
Peace & positivity are what I seek to find.
