How to Release Unwanted Thoughts
Observe or watch your thoughts in a detached way. That is, do not give any emotional response to them. Do not judge them. Do not label them as good or bad. Just watch them one by one. Remember that you are the eternal thinker. As you do this, you are not feeding the thoughts with additional energy. If you persist in observing, they will gradually subside.
do you like this poem i wrote?
okay, well i wrote this poem and i thought i would post it on here and just see what you think…do you like it?
I Let Go…
love hurts the mind almost more than it hurts ones soul.
love plays tricks on my mind causing my own self to shudder or flinch at the thought of my lover, his love taunts thee.
the soul withers at the loose thoughts of him, grasping at the wee memories that we two shared, memories so long forgotten in the mind of my lover but yet so new and replayed in the mind of my own.
the heart hurts as it heals, by making new you have to learn to let go and by letting go means to release your thoughts of him and start fresh. but its hard, i think silently to myself. how could one so easily forget the lovely shared moments so delicately played between us? forgetting them might lose my own hope of finding love again…i know love might come around on another day, and in a different time but right here and now, im going to let go, and let my newly unwanted thoughts wander in the realms of the unknown, it might not be easy, but then again no one ever said it would. that’s why i have to trust, not only love but i have to trust my own self to hurt and to move on, depression is not a disease, i will get cured…eventually, it just takes time, and for time to be taken i must now release all thoughts into that unforbidden space and let go…slowly, as the sound of my heart beats to sleep and the tears dry from my eyes, i let go…
please comment.

Substitute the word love for infatuation, and then you are speaking the truth. Infatuation is what you are describing…love only knows serenity, not pain. Good sentiments! Nice work!
This is what I think it should look like, though:
I Let Go…
Infatuation hurts the mind almost more than it hurts ones soul.
Infatuation plays tricks on my mind causing my own self to shudder or flinch at the thought of my lover, his beguilement taunts thee.

love hurts the mind almost more than it hurts ones soul.
love plays tricks on my mind causing my own self to shudder or flinch,
at the thought of my lover, his love taunts thee.
the soul withers at the loose thoughts of him,
grasping at the wee memories that we two shared,
memories so long forgotten in the mind of my lover,
but yet so new and replayed in the mind of my own.
the heart hurts as it heals…
by making new you have to learn to let go.
letting go means to release your thoughts of him and start fresh.
but its hard,
i think silently to myself.
how could one so easily forget the lovely shared moments so delicately played between us?
forgetting them might lose my own hope of finding love again…
i know love might come around on another day, and in a different time…
but right here and now, im going to let go.
i wont let my newly unwanted thoughts wander in the realms of the unknown..
it might not be easy,
but then again no one ever said it would.
that’s why i have to trust, not only love but i have to trust my own self to hurt and to move on.
depression is not a disease, i will get cured…
eventually,
it just takes time, and for time to be taken i must now release all thoughts into that unforbidden space and let go…
slowly,
as the sound of my heart beats to sleep and the tears dry from my eyes,
i let go…
