Anxiety
July 16, 2014
I'm sick of you
holding me hostage
hiding in the shadows
making me fearful
shredding what's left of my sanity
I wish you would disappear
so I can stop thinking
everyone's watching me
or someone's following me
causing me to think irrationally
things appear that aren't really there
too much chaos in my head
shaky hands
it's getting hard to breathe
this monster won't stop choking me
this monster called anxiety.
