When in danger run

How can I run when the danger is me and my head
How can I run when the monsters aren�t under but surround my bed
How can I run when danger is the thoughts I think
And those very thoughts are a big part of what pushes me to the brink
For me danger is self hate and the extremes I�m willing to go to in an attempt to like myself
Even if those extremes damage my health
Because all I want to do is like myself
But the danger is in trying I may just kill myself
So sometimes you can�t run when you�re in danger

"How can I run when the danger is me and my head"
Yes this exactly
it's a struggle to not let those thoughts ruin every moment and make you feel like shit but I find for me through deep breathing and meditating on the wonder and mystery of life and this universe (and with the help of cannabis lol) I'm able to find a peaceful place in my mind where everythings fine but it's still a hard place to find and I can be there all the time though I try to be
excuse my rant lol not saying that it's that easy but that's what helps me
Great piece enjoyed reading this! 👏
