i hate it

this is a letter to a particular nobody

with only thoughts and secrets to spill

Poetry without rhymes

is like sleeping on a bed of crumbs

It's weird, okay?

But I'm trying

I'm trying my best,

My best to make them proud,

my best to stop the screaming.

I'm trying, but i feel like I'm failing

Again, and again, from start to finish of the day.

Oh, shut up, you stupid brain!

Stop! you stupid mouth!

Stop speaking, just blink and breathe.

that's it.

other than that, just stop! stop! stop!

Just leave everything you're doing

and look in a mirror.

Why and

How

are you like this and

What happened?

Is it because of the things you've said,

and the things you've thought?

the things you've done, and come across,

and seen and heard, and thought, and said..

Ugh! It's an endless loop isn't it?

In my brain, occupying my mind all the time.

it won't stop

even when i shut my brain off

it won't stop

even when i want it to

it wont stop

ugh, i hate this

i hate what i do and say

and i hate who I've become.
