Anxiety

My broken realm,
Threats overwhelm,
Breathing rapid,
Can't stop what happened,
Pain is haunting,
The laughter daunting,

Sticks and stones may break my bones,
But words will break my very soul,
Insults sting,
The pain they bring,
Has dropped me to me knees,

Yet nearly,
Every day,
No, no, neigh, neigh,
Think it's funny,
Isn't a joke to me,

You rip and tear,
You carve, impair,
Blinded by your jealousy,
And yet it isn't about me,

The cliche is strong,
Your life is long,
And so you reign,
Your throne of pain,

Anxiety, anxiety,
What do you wish for me to be?
