Sometimes,
when it's quiet,
my thoughts start running
like terrible rats,
squeaking around me
in the darkness.
They come closer,
force me into a corner,
they scream, they gnaw on me,
take them, take them away from me!
It happens too many times and I finally found a good metaphor (is it what that's called?) for it.
