Drowning

My emotions are wild
As my mind follows
But my mouth,
Nothing rolls off of my lips
Not a thing on the tip of my tongue
Not even the slightest movement

For i know the things on my mind
Will burn more to them than to me
Ringing in my ears
the blood rushing through my head
It feels as if I’m drowning in my feelings
And nobody is there to pull me out
To save me

The rivers that fall from my eyes
Too much overthinking
When will it stop?
the real question, does it ever?

Pain
Known to be temporary
But another always follows
Leading back to where you started

You can beg and plead for it to all stop
But the world doesn’t stop turning
The sky won’t fall
Your mind will never stop
Never stop thinking
And you can accept it
Or let it destroy you
