not that simple

amidst all the thoughts
clouding through my mind,
i always remind myself that
it's just in the mind.
everything is just in mind,
that i can get rid of it
when i don't think of it.
i thought it was all that simple
but no matter what i do,
no matter how long i don't think of it,
it just comes back anyway.
so what do i do now?
remind my self repeatedly
when my thoughts are always killing me?
yes, it is killing me little by little.
for i don't know why
when i did so become so brittle.
and i hate myself for
even thinking negatively
when i could just
sit and think positively.
but no, dear.
it's not that easy.
