if i could speak
to my own mind
i would thank it for
solving all my problems

and then ask it
to shut the fuck up
and leave me alone
for an hour or two

even in my dreams
it finds me and tells me
the same goddamn things,
things i already know,
and i start to resent them
and my mind alike

let me be alone for
a bit, my mind blank
as the notebook i've
been struggling to fill,
and see if that doesn't
put everything in
a new light
a better light
a brighter one

i wouldn't call it poetryWhere stories live. Discover now
