This Mind of Mine.

This mind of mine.

I fear myself.
Not bugs that kill you
or creatures under the bed;
the monsters in my mind.

I look at myself.
And think.
And think.
And think.

I
scare easy.
Imagine situations
I know will never happen;


Why?


The trance of thinking.
Pondering the unknown.
I seem to ask simple questions
I don’t want an answer to.

The “what ifs” in life
can twist a mind.
Contort into emotions
that pluck strings of thoughts

Into a symphony of why’s.

An orchestra of worries;
A stage of fear
that lives in my mind.
