My mind’s a room that never sleeps,
It circles the truth, it twists, it keeps.
It builds its walls both high and tight,
Then checks the doors all through the night.
I trace each word you’ve ever said.
Reply the tone inside my head,
A thousand meanings in a glance,
No room in here for a second chance.
I want to trust, I almost do,
But doubt comes dressed in something true,
It pulls the past into the now
And asks me when and why and how
My hearts a vault with a hidden code,
Each hurt another heavy load.
They keys are lost beneath the fear
That everyone will disappear.
So I smile soft, I play it cool,
Pretend I don’t rewrite each rule,
While thoughts like restless shadows creep
And steal the fragile hours of sleep.
I test the ground with careful feet,
Turn every kindness to deceit,
Not because I want to run-
But trusting feels like holding a gun.
And still I hope you’ll prove my wrong,
Stay steady, patient, kind, and strong-
Break through the noise, the endless spin,
And quiet all the storms within.
But till that day, I’ll overthink.
Stand on the edge, refuse to sink.
A guarded heart, a searching soul.
A mind that cannot lose control.
