POV: YOU'RE AN OVERTHINKER
Being the overthinker—how does that feel?
After reading this piece , perhaps you will see a different side of me.
Every little detail bothers me,
overanalyzing situations in a myriad of ways, and starting a new chapter in my life always brings forth the worst thoughts in me.
Surely, one should look on the bright side of things? Why does this brain not function like that of a typical human being?
A routine circumstance
becomes an intricate labyrinth
from which I am unable to escape
the twists and turns appear to be perfectly duplicated, only escalating my anxiety of losing everything once more.
Today, my thoughts are a pool of remorse
that is consuming every breath I take
and resurfacing unconsciousness
that is tearing apart every shred of hope
I managed to salvage during the day.
And now that I'm sitting here
in the quiet, darkness,
with my thoughts racing far beyond reality,
it makes sense why I'm constantly exhausted even though I don't get out of bed before dawn.
