I was a little surprised when I saw this post! At first, I saw a bunch of colors and tiny writing, odd for a poem. But then I realized, you were trying to show the inside of an overthinking mind. The chaos and mess of it. I overthink a lot so I could relate. I love the little blurbs of writing, different thoughts in different places. This was great, continue to keep up the great work!

Hello, foreveryoung here for a review.

Oh god! I was really confused and exhilerated and entertained at the same time.
The background was really nice and it vividly portrays the fact that you overthought.
Then, I started reading your writing. All the sentences being scrawled here and there– it paints the condition od your brain. And your writing, as always, is awesome.

Great job. Keep writing.

Hello Boo, I call others that, if you don’t mind
This a review if you don’t mind me doing one on your work

The first thing that caught my attention was all the bright and messy colors and I love that. I also love the formatting for this poem, an amazing in my opinion, style keep doing poems like that please I would love to see more from you! The next thing I noticed is all the words everywhere and scatted, it kind of reminds me of my own brain lol. So overthinking huh? This poem definitely reminded me of overthinking good job man!
I love how the sentences are scattered and messy, it adds to the title, the way the sentences don’t really cross was a nice touch, it helps the reader be able to understand the sentence a little better! I loved the whole poem and would love to read more like it!
Onto the actual poem now. The description of overthinking is wonderful and I feel it truly your head hurts and your mind is foggy when your overthinking! I agree with the poem and feel that this is very true to many people.



But answer me this: how can a story end happily if there is no love?
