Secluded inside her head
Alone, with people around her
Searching inside instead
For what, she’s not quite sure
The endless loop of thoughts
Rarely good, generally bad
It seems they’re all she’s got
She finds her circumstances sad
Always flashing in her mind
Continuously pulling her down
Her internal voice should be kind
Not one that knocks her to the ground
She desperately needs this to end
But she’s unsure of what to do
Awareness is her friend
It’s the first step in getting through
These thoughts she wants to end
To start all fresh and new
So much energy she expends
Worrying about me and you
She puts herself down
She calls herself names
No wonder she always frowns
It’s time to stop these games
To stop caring what others think
Soon these negative thoughts will be gone
She’s just hanging on the brink
Ready to halt the voice that is always on
To kick that voice out of her head
To live a joy and love filled life
With laughter and smiles instead
No longer filled with strife!
