Those "what ifs," "should I's," and "what abouts,"
A whirlwind of thoughts in my head, no doubts,
I struggle to untangle even one.

Uncertainty engulfs me, this battle's just begun,
My mind spins, thoughts racing without pause,
Whispering unwelcome possibilities, causing me to take a pause,
I attempt to step back and take a break,
To relax and find rest, for my mind's sake,
But it eludes me, slipping through my grasp.

Is this normal for others, I wonder, as time does rasp,
My head spins like a spinning top,
But unlike the top, it never stops,
I yearn for control, to regain consciousness,
For I fear I've lost it, this is a mental mess.
