people talk about
anxiety
and depression
but no one talks about
hyperfixiation
people talk about
everything meaning nothing
and nothing meaning anything
but no one talks about
everything meaning something
people talk about
their minds being empty
numb and thoughtless
dull and dead
but no one talks about
when your mind is so alive
that you can feel your skin crawl
people talk about
not being able to think
but no one talks about
not being able to stop thinking
or obsessing over something
that doesn't even cross anyone else's mind
or about losing control
of your own thoughts
or about watching helplessly
as you spiral into a place
that doesn't even exist
no one talks about
hyperfixiation
