soft bed of roses
evokes dreams of happiness...
yet beware of thorns:
opinions, overthinking
can often lead to sadness
overthinking of the past
of the mistakes
of the broken promises
i would make
dreadful days, full of pain
full of regrets
drives me insane
Form:
anxiety wreaks
panic throughout your body~
a restless mind strikes

Bad tendency of a bad-habit hobby to get so high,
I find myself overthinking things daily, losing track of time,
To the point my body cycles so irregularly.
The stinging feeling afterwards
On my thighs
I still just got to lie
"I'm okay"
I try to say.
Then I put on my fake smile
My overthinking is worth miles
Why don't you just choose to carry
the beauty of those moments.
What is not, what will never be...
it's too heavy,
too weary.
My darling, just let things be.
What are your degrees?
Overthinking is so me,
Also I blow up the credit card,
Quals in that, not so hard,
Got an "A" in giggling too,
Quals are good for me and you!
We had loads of fun,
Once were young in the sun,
So perfect, man,
In his own scan,
Chick overthinking,
All this overthining,
Really, can be read,
Stuffed why we got wed!
Oh dear, the things i hear
Both laughter and tears, the screams and the fears
It comes and goes, but never shows
It is all in my head, filming up
Until the day it finally stops.
The worst curse
of being human
is thinking too much.
Doubt is born,
then resentment,
then your own hatred.
Regretfully,
I’ve created
what I never wanted:
a pain of the soul.
There’s too much on my mind,
But there’s not enough time,
To write it all down,
So I guess I’ll just drown,
In these thoughts.
They consume me,
Dragging me deeper and deeper,
Down and down,
Into the further unknown.
Caught in a full on dog fight
already grabbed by the throat
cacophony of growling
orbiting through my mind
playing a dangerous game
here we go again
overthinking, shouting
nothing nice to say
yet I sit here, silence screaming.
Regret and Guilt
Coming hand-in-hand
Yes, they are having a good time
Not on a beach or park
But eating me alive
They might have called their buddy
Overthinking to join the feast
Because whenever I look back
They are always smirking
I wish I could speak but I smile
Because I choke on my words I wish I could say
But your presence fills me with bliss
So don’t cram ur self with boredom because of me
But I’m full of greed because i want you to stay
So please stay with me
Don't be a violet, shrinking,
always overthinking.
Be an unbridled, blooming rose.
Tear off all your clothes.
I'd not let just any bird or bee
see what God has given me.
For you, sir, I will not settle.
I won't drop a petal.
Why do people live to think
Think about what others think
They sit and think around all day
Letting dreams just pass away
Thinking builds the mind
Just to make it fall
If this is all that thinking does
Why do people think at all
Form:
I Want to live this world amazingly
But the habit of overthinking
Has been making things messy
The what ifs are being overpowered
The big childhood dreams
Are being shattered
It's like living in a time loop
An unstoppable droll
To which I must reroute
Extreme heat, mild hail at night, questions
But at dawn, those venturing at 5, see signs
That autumn is rolling in like a ball of yarn
A challenge to equanimity, healing Shalom,
For the human condition urges overthinking
With God's gift beside me, I breathe, I breathe
I leaned back in my chair and carefully thought,
'bout what is to be, and what is not,
and the things that are and the things which was,
and what doesn't and that which does.
Just then, I leaned too far and fell on my head.
I'd finish the thought, but now I'm dead.
I’m overthinking,
tired of the endless waiting,
about to blow up.
Even my mom sees it.
She starts some cutting remark
only to pull it back.
Me: "Argh! I have this anger, just below the surface."
My brother: "Uhh, it's not that far below the surface."
I sit in silence
I breathe with no sound
I sit in silence
Just playing thoughts out loud
I watch the world from a window
I watch the window in a room
I sit in the room in quiet
I sit in the room with whom
Say something
Just one word
Say something
Silence is all I have learned
Transitioning to a state of indifference to you
Fading out of desperation
Something in me has been reawakened
That I had thought long snuffed out
She makes me feel something other than guilty
Takes me away from overthinking
So forgive me, if my smiles no longer necessitate
Thinking of you
A thought not yet realized
Unearth, my cerebellum contorted in confusion
A lack of comprehension
The heart of iron melted at first hesitation
Trembling with fear and burdened with disgust
Feeling unworthy even though the asset has value
Within a second, the idea evaporated into nothingness
Coffee. Tea.
Or whatever it may be.
Stay awake, wait for it.
Go to sleep when the sunshine's lit.
Your mind's suffocated,
let it breathe.
Night time mornings,
the losts' time for mourning.
Close your eyes
Clear your mind
Another night is yet to come.
