Having such a hard time
Just trying to occupy my mind.
Trying to prevent that voice
From attacking me with his sharp words.
Trying to get away from my internal villain
who's attacking me with past mistakes
And future failures unforeseen.
The attacks come silently, like a preying cheetah
Until it sees its prey and then it pounces.
Biting into the soft flesh of the mind
Never letting go no matter what.
And will not stop till the mental meat is devoured
Trying to fight off the cheetah with the good things
With the happy times in my life, but like a storm cloud
It comes and casts a shadow on an otherwise beautiful day.
