Silence
Not as deadly
As also being still
Flowing thoughts onto paper
Hiding from other thoughts
Thoughts that pry me open
Pry my mind open
To never close
Thinking about thinking
Making me go crazy
Can’t sleep
Thoughts guarding
The sanctuary of rest
Laying still opens me up
Opens me up to thoughts
Thoughts too frightening
They lay unthought
And writing leaves them
Leaves them that way
The way they should stay
