All the things that worry me
Can drive anyone to insanity
I wish I could concentrate on the present
But my mind is elsewhere and I'm absent
–
I need more than just a distraction
I need a constant reliable companion.
If left alone, my mind will be my destruction
Which will lead me to great devastation
–
Life is a consistent daily battle
All it does is to scare and to rattle.
All day long my brain searches for an answer
Why everything ends up a disaster.
–
They always come when you least expect it.
It feels uneasy like clothes that don't fit.
I wish there are things that can be granted immediately
Especially in situations that require great urgency.
–
Life's not easy – a lesson I've learned daily
Sometimes in a manner I've noted painfully.
I'm always tense, anxious and agitated
Sometimes I think I should be rehabilitated.
