It hits fast with no trace
No warning…no face
Slips in slick and sips blood quick
Steals breath and whispers death
It chokes and grinds
Claws deep and rewires minds
No mercy…no pause
Just rot and crippling loss
It feeds and crawls
A shadow that shatters and mauls
No escape or way out
It leaves permanent scarring and doubt

Sometimes when the mind starts wandering
So many memories and thoughts keep pondering
Life never stays the same as it keeps on changing
Moments of joy and sadness just keep reclaiming
Sometimes there is chaos all around
You look for silence but never found
No one sees the frenzied turmoil
On the surface all looks so serene
Sometimes your mind blocks everything
No memories no thoughts just practicalities of life
You are broken but not to the visible eye
Grief rewires everything just for you to survive
Sometimes you struggle to break the shackles
Sometimes you just quietly gather your pieces
All it takes is to be true to yourself
And slowly rest will always fall in place.

It's written with neurons what you feel,
it's your cells, your very inner being,
you think it's going to change tomorrow,
can't use your school eraser that you have had to do this,
thought after thought the mind rewires the brain,
build new circuits with the same neurons to change your feelings,
don't love what you loved to stop pain,
don't fear what you feared to stop anguish,
It's written with neurons this that directs you.
