Tumbling Tower

These thoughts are building up like an endless tower,

constantly rising until its weight can no longer be supported,

and causing my ton of thoughts to tumble down like a rain shower.

 

I pretend that I’m fine, but God knows that I’m a fighter,

trying to slay it all away before my mind becomes contorted.

These thoughts are building up like an endless tower.

 

I try to make my silent screams louder,

but my calls for help are thwarted

when my tower of thoughts collapses like a rain shower.

I’m becoming weak. I’m losing my power.

I need to be figured out before it’s too late. Sorted.

These thoughts are building up like an endless tower.

 

I am the enemy of my own mind, and I will be something my mind will devour.

As my thoughts consume me whole, I will become distorted

after my tower of thoughts collapses like a rain shower.

 

Control is what these thoughts will soon empower

if I do not try to keep my mind guarded,

but these thoughts are building up like an endless tower,

making my thoughts tumble down and fall like a rain shower.
