I don't want to need reassurance

But lately, the thoughts have been winning

I try to tell myself that it's not true

But I can't stop overthinking

Because in the past, I was right

And I saved myself some pain

I try to tell myself it's different this time

But those thoughts live in my brain

Overthinking ruins you

That's what they say

My thoughts are my worst enemy

Making sure I don't live another day

Please be patient, give me reassurance

I'm trying to survive

And set myself free

From the demons inside
