haunted by the tv of confusion
I'm leaving behind the backpack of anxiety
turning off the ACE of truma
the blanket of loneliness never helped me keep warm.
taking off the sweater of stress
I'm gonna lay on the roof of happiness all day.

I love how this is so simple- and yet it feels as if there is something behind it all that makes it very complex. It has a random childlike tone, but it's told with such maturity that you can tell that it has a deeper meaning.   I  like it. good job.   P.S. would you mind checking out some of my newer poems? I'd love your feedback. Thanks!

To love is to be vulnerable; Triumph is born out of struggle; We notice shadows most when they stand alone in the midst of overwhelming light.

Also, I've needed to do what you wrote in your poem. It's simple, but powerful to me.
