Thoughts walk in the door unbidden
Visions of catastrophe and mayhem
The worst scenarios and possible outcomes
The song of doom is sung inside my head
But no longer do I run with this tune
Or complete listening to all the gloom
I know now that these are just a warning
Protection mechanism from my body kicked in
An alert of things to guard against
Instead of chasing these mental plays
Down the foreboding rabbit hole of darkness
I thank myself for highlighting the dangers
Express that I have no need for them
And bid these graphic pictures farewell
