STUCK BETWEEN MY THOUGHTS
STUCK BETWEEN MY THOUGHTS I tried to speak, but my tongue just froze, I tried to breathe, couldn’t feel my nose, The thoughts in my head were swirling like wind, I couldn’t find where to even begin. The words were there, but they wouldn’t come out, They tangled themselves in a whirlwind of doubt, And everything I wanted to say, Seemed to gather its thoughts and run away.

I was my own critic, the worst I had known, Finding fault with the seeds that I’d carefully sown, And somewhere beneath all the worry and pain, I wondered if I’d ever feel happy again.
