OVERTHINKING


My mind is my shield. My pen is my sword. I deal with the world in a different voice. I'm stuck in limbo with my thoughts that take a void. Wouldn't it be a joy to live as a voice, and not be stuck in an overthinking process that everyone avoids. It would be amazing, but it doesn't always work like that. Sometimes you have to be different for the world to crack on that. Some may say your mind is to difficult, and we don't want to work on that. So let's avoid it, and act like it never happened. I see why my words are overtaken by many who don't understand it. Because most get offended before I even plan this. I'm being honest, I live on a different planet. I lost a lot of friends, because none of them wanted to swim in the deep end. They're afraid they may drown, and I won't save them. What type of person do you think I am. I try my hardest in different angles, scaring liars with hidden blades. That aren't meant to kill them. It's only meant to bring fear to my demons. not to my angels. The world is so twisted, whenever you mention the word evil. people think your Satanist. So they don't want to stand by you, they yell across the road, you need Jesus! While throwing holy water on you. because they believe they'll catch your wickedness. In God's honest truth. We're all crazy behind closed doors. the world doesn't know it yet. Never think I'm soulless, because I write like this. I want to make it to heaven just like everyone else. I'm just not afraid to be honest with myself. I keep it real, as an overthinker.
