Anxiety

by Jenn   Oct 12, 2016


Anxiety.

I feel like I'm spiraling out of control...
All the solutions I thought I found...
Are now riddled with holes.
Wanting loving arms wrapped around me...
To hold me... console me.
Sigh; I Lay down to sleep, but start to weep..
Not much, just a tear. Mostly out of fear.
Am I going to make it through tomorrow?
I barely made it through today.
Anxiety wreaks havoc on my mind..
No simple answers will I find.
Only asking for a moments peace...
My conscience isn't that kind.
Silence so I can process my thoughts. I cannot find...
At this point my sanity has left me behind.
Sad part is.. I don't mind.

      That's exactly what it's talkin about!
      That's why I write, it gives me 10min to get my shit together.. compose myself, and just let it all out.
      You should check out my poem titled: Writing.

    Distress prolonged, unveils fury. Things go wrong to turn good at last.

    Feelings and emotions are hard to convey in poetry some times. The goal is to let the reader walk in the shoes of the poet and feel the emotion they feel. You did that here, good write
