Unseen workings of the mind

by Ky   Mar 25, 2019


Within the confines of my mind,
My deepest darkest cell,
Where all my greatest fears reside,
My personal living hell,
Here lives every word I’ve said,
And everything I’ve learned,
Every conversation ever had,
And every lie I’ve heard,
1000 thoughts a second,
Fighting for top spot,
Emotion interlinked with each,
Forever not to stop,
White noise is such a peaceful sound,
Though not when In excess,
No single thought stays long enough,
To fix and ease this stress,
I struggle to make sense of things,
The chaos in this place,
The fires burning deep inside,
Behind this smiling face.

    Strongly written. When every inch of you is screaming on the inside and your outside face remains calmly smiling. That is strength, stay strong.
