Anxiety.
A seven letter word,
With one skin tightening, head spinning, world crumbling, love life destroying meaning.
Anxiety.
Known to affect just about anyone,
But to what degree?
To the degree of where you can quickly say "I'm fine, I'm just exaggerating", or to the point where you're crying on your bedroom floor and your shaking so much that you can't even pull yourself back to reality.
Anxiety.
The excuse you use when you can no longer fully trust or love after the boy who you swore would love you forever leaves you standing in the cold. The literal cold.
Anxiety.
The excuse you give to your friends as to why you can't go out even when you know you're missing out on a good time.
Anxiety.
A seven letter word.
But enough to break you into seven million little pieces.
Anxiety.

The Bible says love never fails. So if it fails, it wasn't love.
