Versions of me: The overthinking me (p4)

a thousand wishes

I see people I see voices 

My brain is filled with a million choices  

And all my hopes and dreams 

They fade away 

So I tell myself... 

 

One more day, One more day 

One more day you can get away 

 

But no more days, no more days 

I'm sick and tired of never getting my way 

So, no more days 

 

The ground is shaky and my head is spinning round 

People are walking past, what are they saying? 

Are they talking about me? 

 

If I'm not good enough should I change 

Now my mind's going to a different place 

Can I change myself? Cause I don’t know who I am 

Am I crazy? Do I hate me? 

 

Is that what this is? 

All this overthinking  

And I would never  

Revel in the devil's love 

To fuck up my life 

But oh I have no hopes  

And that's just that 

 
 

Are you here because you want me or just need me?

Just know that you can trust me and if need be 

You can love me no questions asked 

Oh when I saw you last 

We were in love 

 

Oh but time has passed and so have you 

If you could come back to me 

So I wouldn’t be stuck here  

To overthinking...

    'If I'm not good enough should I change
    Now my mind's going to a different place
    Can I change myself? Cause I don’t know who I am
    Am I crazy? Do I hate me?

    Is that what this is?
    All this overthinking'..
    (I so relate! dear Poet
    this
    that, internal dialogue
    between impassioned anxiety
    and pragmatic logic..)

      Exactly, glad you liked it! and that you find it relatable

      I could relate to this one... The feeling to hate yourself, the feeling to be getting used by others even though you trust them, the times when you feel like you dont wanna meat new people cause of many reasons, the feeling of wanting love but the fear that you will lose it once again...
      The self-consciousness that people dislike you..
      You see, even though i m just 18 but i am telling you people dont really give a fu*k about others, there are people who dont use others and there are always 2nd chances to start again just dont give up in between....
      Hope you will do fine and i love reading your poems
