...
Awkward silence, twiddling thumbs,
heated cheeks, tension filled lungs.
And
Clenching jaws, trembling fingers,
averted eyes, words that linger.
And
Loud swallows, quiet breathing, racing thoughts, hearts beating.
And
Cautious mumbles, twisting tongues,
legs shaking, feeling numb.
And
Rooms spinning, stomachs flipping,
sweaty palms, overthinking.
And
Living carefully, mirrors lying, constant worrying, pride dying.
The Perks of Having Social Anxiety.
