I hate when my mind takes control
I hate when it makes me wonder why
I hate when I can't think Straight
I hate it when things seem different than I thought they were
I hate it when I question you
I hate my brain that’s in some one else’s head
I hate how I procrastinate
I hate how I cannot talk
I hate how these thoughts are lost inside my head
I hate not knowing what to think
I hate it and I wish I could run away from my mind,
But it's stuck inside my head,
And I'm stuck inside my mind.

Sometimes our mind seems like some foreign invader who has forced its way into our head. It can be stubborn, reluctant or just refuses to cooperate. It's like we are possessed by someone or something else (I've had that happen just before an important test at school!) Sometimes the mind is like a wild animal and we have to tame and train it. We can control it, we just need to figure out how! The mind is like a magic genie with limitless wishes to be granted. All we have to do is figure out how to get it out of that darned lamp!!

A very good write, as we can see we all relate to this! Always quesioning ourselves, we just got to accept some things and improve on what we can!

well... no matter where you go, there you are. I think it's common to sometimes yell at ourselves to just shut up. ~~~Val

hahaa I wrote an entry in my online journal kinda like this. I know how you feel. My mind thinks way too much and it always makes me question everyone, my faith, myself, just everything. It gets on my nerves and is always running, I cna't even sleep right at night cuz of it. But I wish you luck with yours, lol. Nice write.

You maybe stuck with your mind, but your mind is stuck with you.
The mind is a powerful tool that if used right, it can expand your horizons. Don't runaway from it. Talk to it and learn how to control it. -
Sometime we think too much, get away, take a walk, gather your thoughts and feelings. At least you know flaws and there are ways to work on them to become a better person. Give it some time. And look at the situation a day or two from now.

wow, don't hate too much about yourself...although I guess I should tell myself that sometimes...I can totally relate to this poem too, i mean, sometimes, i just wanna scream at my brain "STOP THINKING ABOUT WHY THIS, AND WHY THAT...JUST ACCEPT IT!!!!!" but my brain doesn't seem to want to listen...
good luck, and i hope you feel better soon about your mind...

That is a lot of hate
I know the feeling though, sometimes it can get so hard to just.... live and be happy with things, I get sick of my flaws too, but, things work out. They do for me, and they will for you too This was a really good write, and I only have one suggestion for you. You've got the line
"I hate when I can't think strait "
"Strait" is like the thin strip of water separating two land masses... (Bering Strait) "Straight" is the oppposite of crooked. Great write God bless -Saab
