Conversations
In your mind
Playing out
Clouding
Your thoughts
A mile a minute
Conversations
Playing
Through your mind
Keeping you from peace
Not allowing you
To center
To find that quiet place
That refuge inside your mind
When the world comes stumbling in
Threatening your peace
Keeping you from getting sleep
Sometimes these conversations
Can seem so real
It can feel
Like these conversations
That incessant chatter
Just won't stop
Sometimes
Those thoughts in your head
Can become so constant
That you start to believe
That the thoughts
And the feelings
And the voices in your head
Are actually real
And you can begin to believe
The negative things
That keep playing through
Your mind
Sometimes
You have to separate yourself
From your thoughts
Learning to switch your thoughts
Switch your perspectives
So that you can begin to separate
The thoughts inside your head
And begin listening to
That calm inner voice
That encourages
That guides
That offers
Peace
Quiet
Calm
That lets you know
That you are beautiful
That you are
Exactly where
You should be
