My anxiety is bigger than my temper
This anxiety that I carry around,
Effects my everyday life.
I can't say hi to a random stranger
Nor can I even try to buy a normal candle.
My pale eyes stay glued to the ground.
Even if you are talking to me,
I can't look you in the eyes,
Because I fear that you can
tell how broken I am
Just by seeing my eyes.
I can't let that happen.
You can't know how truly wrecked I am.
I need you to believe im strong.
Just like I've always been.
Even with this anxiety controlling me like a puppet.
