internal moments

There are moments that seem to last far too long internally. These are thoughts rife with pain, that chew and gnaw on my brain like cognitive cannibals. Once these thoughts start eating from the inside out a multiplication effect occurs and any attempt at witnessing them for the negative chatter (meaninglessness) they are, no longer stunts their growth. These beasts burden the mind and feast on any positive matter that has accrued. If willpower to witness sooner and thinking strong were tools that maintained a sharp edge, a chance, I might stand.
