I Hate Baths

My mind is full of things

I cannot figure out what

The time ticks as I sit still

awaiting for something to happen

for something to come my way

but I sit and sit

pondering my life away

questioning my moves in every way

should I really be here? 

what have I done wrong in life

why did this happen to me

I hate the thoughts

the process of putting my memories on replay

not stopping for a brief moment and have everything on display

and realizing I rather be distracted

not knowing what my mind is up to

and fall away from my thoughts,

the images,

the memories,

just stop

stop the ticking

stop the dreaming

stop the tears

stop my hands

from reaching something deeper inside

that could end a lifetime

of memories yet to come

I should be thinking of my future

not the past 

but it is kinda hard

when it relapses

I sit here way to long

letting my legs turn red

water mixing with tears

sweating with anxiety 

trying to stop

stop thinking
