Poem / Lyric: Harmful Self (Aug 2024)

Writer's picture: Stefan ZhangStefan Zhang

Late nights, most anxious times,

Harmful thoughts flood my mind.

Can’t unsee the patterns there,

In the darkness, I despair.


I need support, not from outside,

But from within, where fears reside.

Overthinking, heart in strife,

Trying to find peace in life.


I’m harmful to myself,

These thoughts are a killing force.

Losing grip, no control,

As they take their course.


I try not to hurt myself,

Holding pillows tight for calm.

Deep breaths, talking through the storm,

Fighting hard to stay strong.


I’m harmful to myself,

In ways that I can’t face alone.

Journeys in and out, my mind,

Fluctuates with words it finds.
