dreamt thoughts

trying

Sometimes,
It's crazy to think that,
I battle my mind
For 24 hours a day.
Trying to not think of thoughts.
Harmful thoughts.
Pushing them back,
That eventually make it past the makeshift mental
barricade and overwhelm me.
But
I still try to
Push them away.

               trying
                    is all i do.

That's my strength.

is it really trying if they still over power you?
