Thought Shrapnel

Under attack from within

 

 

The flack jacket I wear around my brain to protect me

 

Is no longer working; I guess it finally shattered

 

Under the constant, never-ending bombardment

 

I've subjected it to, and the white-hot shards of my thoughts

 

Are smashing home, blowing my guilt apart, shredding my

 

Defenses; ripping huge jagged gaps in my train of thought,

 

Bringing me to my knees; with my last conscious thought,

 

I scream silently, "Leave me alone!"

You're letting your thoughts lead you round and bully you instead of penning them up and making them behave.
