Overthinking
Constant thought made from assumptions
every scenario played by mental illustrations
as much its placed in exile,
the negative mental outcomes are prime.
much sleep is lost over those that sleep soundly,
or at least to care for an existence in which helps to love
the struggle of life proudly.
And yet we fall shy, of a text read or a reply.
How I long to taste your lips
but only get to savor the friendship
while your actions has me in a mental brawl
realizing to move on when the excuses become dull.
