Tiny Bullets


There's this constant

Knock, Knock, Knocking

In my mind

 

The pain is slowly,

but surely tearing....

my brain apart

 

As it burrows deeper

Like a mole in the dirt 

 

It throbs, catching my attention

As teachers do when waking sleeping

students

 

Just as this pain racks my

head, so do my thoughts

 

My thoughts are like

tiny bullets that fill

my concious pistol

 

These bullets shoot off....

One, by one, by one.

 

Taking me off guard

As it fills my head with,

Memories

 

Memories filled with the,

Pain... happiness, sadness,

and love that is my life.

 

I try to stifle

these thoughts

 

But the bullets

They are too strong

 

And they rip threw my mind

So they enter my mind soon

They leave no exit wound

 

Meaning these thoughts

They never get to leave

 

Although some do apease

Me, Myself, and I

 

Are still waiting

For my subconcious

Surgeon to pull these

tiny bullets out and stop

This mental bleeding.
