pain

I am Anxiety

I am the never-ending nerves & fear,
the fog in your head that doesn't clear,
the pounding in your ears,
I am Anxiety

I am the unreasoned quicken of your heartbeat,
the feeling that your feet are made of concrete,
the rising of your blood heat,
I am Anxiety.

I am the sweating of your palms,
the reason you are never calm,
the restless feeling of alarm,
I am Anxiety.

I am the perpetual need to occupy your mind,
the smile you put on to make everyone blind,
the nonstop sound of the teeth you grind,
I am Anxiety

I am the rethinking and doubting of your every word,
the sensation of your stomach being churned,
the thoughts that hit you like the stampede of a herd,
I am Anxiety

I AM ANXIETY
