Anxiety Attack

I heard a knock at the door
Looked through the window
No one was there

I opened the door, looked around
Closing the door I fell to the ground
Heart beating, breath ceasing

It grabbed a hold of my throat
I was no longer captain of the boat
It sunk the boat
I realized I can't even float

Worry and stress filled my lungs
I kicked and gasp for air
I was like a clown at the fair
Everyone laughs at me and stare

I was chained up like a slave
I now belonged to worry
I have never felt so much stress
I tried to fight back...

Realization knocked at the door
Anxiety opened it.
And I saw myself at the door.
