perfect

i have an-
undying need to be perfect
i hear everyone say it's not worth it
but i will stop at absolutely nothing
to be the best at literally everything

but i have moments where i can't
get out of bed
my anxiety screams
unimaginable things into my head
and i feel like i'm being ripped apart,
piece by piece
and if i die, i know that i'll be at peace

i will not-
kill myself. at least, not for now
my anxiety doesn't like being in the ground
but i just can't escape the thoughts,
they're right inside my head
but how will i tackle them
if my vision is all red

(this isn't build-a-bear smh)
