Thoughts.
Attacking your mind like wild bears.
Crazy and unstoppable.
Thoughts.
They are uncontrolled.
Very disturbing.
Watching your every movement.
Commenting on every step you take
Inescapable
Uncomfortable
Bad thoughts is what kills
"it" should be locked up
Never to escape.
Makes you die inside.
Thoughts are insane.
Overwhelming
Distracting
Thoughts take place of music
There is no "off" button
I can't shut them out
The replay button is stuck
It's out of control
Thoughts aren't sentences
No, they are questions
Why didn't you do this differently
Thoughts.

The author's comments:
Lately I have been through a lot. I have also been grounded so having a lack of listening to music to tone out these helpless thoughts kills. I can't stop them, so I decided to attempt to write them away.

I have had it happen to me. I have been in love at first sight, even though it was a one way street..

Haha, nahh. But at the time I was going through a lot so I thought (<< Haha, 'thought') that I would just write about thoughts in general and what they do to people instead of what was going on, ya know?

Oh, WOW! This is amazing! I know exactly what you mean about thoughts constantly driving you crazy. Did you read my mind then write this or something?
