Whispers of the Soul

Anxiety

The Knots Inside

In the quiet of night, when shadows draw near,
A whisper of worry begins to appear.
Thoughts twist and tangle like vines in a maze,
Knots in my stomach, a hazy, restless haze.

A gentle tug pulls at the corners of mind,
Each worry a thread that's too tightly entwined.
I search for the words, but they slip through my hands,
Like sand through my fingers, as chaos expands.

The pulse of my heart beats a frantic refrain,
A symphony echoing, drowning in strain.
What ifs and maybes dance in the air,
With each passing moment, they linger, they stare.

I sit in the stillness, a storm in my chest,
Feeling the pressure, the weight of unrest.
The knots twist tighter, a grip I can't shake,
In the silence, I feel every tremor, each ache.

But somewhere inside, there's a flicker of light,
A whisper of hope in the depths of the night.
With each careful breath, I begin to unwind,
Releasing the tension that's held in my mind.

I breathe in the calm, let the stillness take hold,
The knots start to loosen, their grip growing cold.
Each exhale a promise to face what's within,
To untangle the threads where the chaos begins.

With patience, I gather the pieces of me,
Embracing the fear, letting it be free.
For though the knots linger, they don't have to stay,
I'm learning to navigate through shadows each day.

In the dance of my thoughts, I find strength to embrace,
The knots that once bound me now hold a new space.
I'll carry the lessons, the journey I find,
In the tapestry woven, a new peace aligned.
