everynight i relive those 6 years...everyday i wish i hadnt
by Emily Sullivani would like it very much
if you would get out of my head
stop visiting me every night
while i am asleep in my bed
please let me sleep through the night
without showing your face
though at first i feel laughter
eventually i know her face
always follows soon after
i dont care to relive these moments any longer
my life is perfect, it could not be better
the arms i have to hold me through the night
are more i could have asked for
since all you have left me with
is the glimpse of what may have been
i feel you could atleast give me this request
after all, i am asking nicely
so please stay away from me during these hours
i would honestly prefer to forget
all of those things which kept me
in your power
stop making me wake up each day
feeling as though i have been mislead
(stop giving me reasons to waste my poems on you!)

I call it allowing someone to live in my head rent-free. For me the only way I can kick those thoughts to the curb, is to be determined to not think about them. Easy? Not in the least, but possible. You can do it; I know you can, and you'll feel so peaceful when you do.
My method is whenever a thought, person, event, whatever comes into my head and drives me crazy, I cut off that thought by telling myself to "Drop the Rock!" It takes awhile, but it works. At least it does for me. Yeah, I've been there before many times.
