Overthinking

OVERTHINKING.... Overthinking is my enemy I always let it get the best of me WHY cant I just let things be? Constant state of insanity Is it me or does anyone else see? The words that drive me into a frenzy.. What to do? What to do? Take a breath what's got a hold of You? OMG who am I talking to? Everyone will think I'm missing a screw! I think I'm going out of my mind I came this way its how I was designed Why isn't the simple answer easier to find? WHY do I continually rewind? Why are my thoughts so unkind? I know life is not always black & white Reality & rationality constantly fight Doesn't matter if it's morning noon or night I'm wracked with confusion Is what I see real or an illusion? People must think I am nuts or I'm using! At times jump to my own conclusion My tired weary mind needs a break! HOW does one facilitate? My hands start to shake Isn't peacefulness give & take? Gotta learn how to chill for CHRIST'S sake! This overthinking got me feeling kinda ill Don't think there's a magic pill If someone asked me to try it I most certainly will I should just try and go with the flow Relax calm down take it slow It's hurting my spirit Don't enjoy it.. fear it Somehow I'm always near it It's zapping my energy Robbing the very best of me The person I was meant to be Overthinking always been my tendency Don't think with it to great I'm dealing Got to try & move past it CUZ my life it's really stealing Better find a way end thoughts reeling But only I can make the conscious decision To make a change & start my own healing

We all do it from time to time. Enjoyed reading you today. I wrote a poem entitled "Don't overthink it" if your interested. Your title is what caught my eye.
