It Swallows Me Up Whole

My mind is stuck in negative,
I just can’t get off this track.
I go round and round in circles,
And I keep on coming back.

I try to think more positive,
Let the good things fill my mind.
I try to fill the emptiness
With whatever I can find.

I step ahead with purpose,
With the need to start anew.
I know I need to change things,
And that’s what I intend to do.

I start my day determined,
Filled with purpose and resolve.
Then the pain strikes uninvited
And I quickly will dissolve.

I fall back into the pattern,
I let the darkness take control.
I feel frustration and such anger
And it swallows me up whole…

Hopefully one day I’ll get it right, or at least have fun, while about it I write!
