The Thinking

A look into o.c.d. and insomnia; what it feels like to be so very tired but you're mind keeps racing with thoughts.

My head is pounding
My eyes are heavy
If I stop thinking
It will stop hurting
But I can't stop thinking
I can never stop thinking
No matter how tired
No matter how numb
I just keep thinking
My head keeps pounding
My eyes so heavy
Sleep is but a dream
To those who can't stop thinking

Author's Note

I actually wrote this while in the state described in the poem. It made my headache worse but I got what I wanted out of it.
