Spiral of Thoughts - By: Stella Z

Giving. but never getting

Loving, but never beloved

Good, but never enough

Pretty, but never beautiful

Not fat, but never skinny

Spiral of thoughts,

Thinking never stops

Why do worms like the dark?

Why do I feel so numb?

Panick attacks

Trembling

Nausea

Thoughts eating me alive

Can't sleep

Brain doesn't turn off

"You're not good enough"

"You deserved it"

Thinking never stops
