thoughtless thoughts rummage through my head,
unfiltered raging through the seams,
spiraling out of control,
tumbling through the world they know.
intrusive,
uninvited,
my thoughtless thoughts push on through,
angry still since i ignore their points of view.
they wish to fill the dread within my head,
begging to see me depressed instead.
screams & shouts threaten to paralyze me,
to crush my will, like all those years ago,
when i had been beaten still.
thoughtless thoughts revel in my misery,
as i recall my ancient history.
whereas the countless nights i had to bear,
my heart was stolen from me with more scars than
i could bare.
struggling still i'm healing,
patching up the wounds easy for others to see,
the thoughts are really angry at me.
fore behind the bars within my head,
i have them imprisoned behind invisible lead.
only kept at bay if for but a moment.

- Comment from author about the poem: This poem that I've careful constructed has taken me awhile to write. It was at first difficult because it is something that I struggle with on a day to day basis. Like most people struggling mentally & with depression it's a a challenge just to be here. Fighting the fight of life & it's many twist & turns. I tried to convey how I felt when I was experiencing the darkest point of my life. Thank you to anyone who takes the time to read this poem.

It gets easier with age, but never truly goes away. Well written healing words.
I keep hearing that. Eventually I hope it's true. Thank you so much for your kind words.
