Too much thinking (Poem)

Ever been up days straight with nothing but time and thoughts?  I have a lot on my plate and its more than I can eat.  Can't seem to get all my thought out into words to release from mouth to ears.  So I write.  I write a lot.  So much that there are now 40 plus poems I have written in the last three days.  Some how I still don't feel better because I still have a lot more to say!  Make sense?  It does to me.  By the way, thanks for the prayers!  Might not appreciate it now but I will in the end. :-) 


Too Much Thinking.......
The ringing in my head won't stop
as I lay in pain watching the clock
I wonder if I am the only one up at this time
losing sleep as time fly on by
I think about those who I've let go from my life
especially to the one I committed to being his wife
I'm so tired of thinking
no longer speaking
that I have completely
let go cause I'm so weak
In my body there's no fight
Gosh....can I please get some sleep tonight!
No more pills
prayers or religious wills
I hurt bad
deeply angered and sad
no more speaking
gave in completely
looked at me
not liking what I see
no family of my own
no peace in my home
no medical to help the sick
no understanding to this

what I thought was my family
wrote blood is thicker than water to me
folks can't handle my honesty
I say shut the *#^ up and let me be
That is one thing I love about me
I won't stop no matter how much you hate on me
and you.......stop kissing me on my head
stay on your side of the bed
No one truly understands
the hurt, the anger at hand
my past is in my face
too painful to look at in any place
Dad you walked away
Mom you've hated me since I arrived in the place
My siblings you got your wish
I'm out the way you can have that ish
Not gone gang up on me
We will no longer speak
Ya'll are not my family
keep my name out yo mouth, let me be
to my external fam, I heard you loud and clear
I'm accepted as long as I be a dear
to not speak to your inner circle
So you bruise my heart with colors of red and purple
the blow is hard, I got it! I understand!
I married into it, the name don't flow inside my hand
If I want to be mistreated I'll stay with my own
fighting a battle like the day I was born
ugh!  a family of?........
what the heck was I thinking of!

I'm really sick of thinking
I will not be speaking
I chose who I deal with completely
Mind is strong body is weak
Sick of fighting
Gosh....I really want some sleep tonight!

Sincerely,
