Time after time
It's never wavering
Another sleep less night
Thoughts spiraling
Time after time
I've beg for it to stop
Why?
Why tonight?
Why debilitate me from proper sleep?
Flashbacks
Memories
Flashing by
The horror that comes up
The cycle that abuse my mind
Time after time
Will it only end the day I die?
Try to break the cycle
Don't let it repeat
Try something different
Every time I try
I seem to revert back to old ways
Bite my tongue
To keep it to myself
Don't want anyone to feel pity for me
Can I break this cycle?
Or will it repeat time after time?
Till the day I die?
The cycle is harsh on the mind
Overthink constantly
Same old anxious thoughts
Same old toxic memories
Why do flashbacks happen?
Why can't I be normal?
