Don’t Think
Following my heart
down dead-end streets
letting my life be directed
by…my feet?
Don’t think, just go
don’t listen
to what you feel.
Live with your mistakes
it’s all part of the deal.
How did you learn
to live so unfulfilled?
Well, don’t think now
just take your
little green
antidepressant pill.
Thoughts
will turn to feelings
you really can’t let out
because if you do
you’ll lose it
and you’ll scream
and you’ll shout.
Be quiet.
Do what’s expected.
Don’t make any waves
just do what your told
be a good girl, behave.
Someday you’ll spill
from all of the strain
but until then,
be quiet feelings
you’re such a pain.

Women Who Think Too Much by Jeanne Marie 
Oh wow. I know this one is from a long time ago but I really relate to it. Too many people just want to go away and shut up. This is a really good poem.
