I lay down and close my eyes
I take deep breaths
In and out
I try to let the thoughts go by
Let my mind calm down
Instead I get
"Let's go over everything you did today and point out every reason that it was wrong"
And
"Remember that one time when you did that thing when you were 12?"
I toss and I turn
And my body
It aches
It aches from the work and the worry
The worry that everything is against me
The worry I might lose my job
The worry that something could happen to the people I love.
And there's nothing that I can do about it
There goes my mind again
