the Unfortunate Thought

the Terrible Things and I

I called them the terrible things.

the things that came to mind.

the meaningless thoughts of the left side of my brain

you are too fat, you are too stupid, you are ugly.

Oh the Terrible Things.

the shadows of my remorse and my inner pain swam through my eyes like pools of the clear sea.

I lie about how I really feel.

The fake smile I glue to my face in hopes I fall for the lie.

the people never saw, the shadows never believed I was okay. they knew the truth.

I see the mask I wear through the restroom mirror.

I take it off. tears and horror drip from behind the mask.

sorrow of how some are great and I am me

Oh the Terrible Things.

I wish I had confidence. confidence isn\'t something you are born with they said. The voices behind my eyes.

black and red leak from my nose and I collapse to the pool of blood on the restroom floor.

why me, why they.

they drown me with their pleasure of my sadness and insecurities.

Oh the Terrible Things.

my safe place, invaded with the Terrible Things.

\"I thought I got rid of you\" I said. they smile with pleasure knowing my pain deep in my heart swimming with joy and happiness while I lay in my back thinking of the End.

Once upon a time I was okay. Then came the Terrible Things that I created with my thoughts.

The Terrible Things

Oh the terrible things

when will I rid of you.

simple question, complicated answer.

with pain and dred I fall in the feilds of my
mind.

never

I\'ll get rid of you one day.

soon very soon I hope and I started out loud in hopes someone will come to rescue.

\"We\'ll never leave they said. we. will. never.\"
