I hear you knocking |
Thank you so much for sharing this. As I read this I couldn’t believe how spot on the emotions for anxiety are that you described. It’s constant.. incessant.. continuously begging for a reprieve- even if just for a short while. |

You did a great job personifying anxiety in this piece! |
I agree that the format worked so well, especially in the last lines, where each word is even more of a plea. This resonated so much with me. How anxiety can be impossible to drown out, to calm, to put at ease. And we just want peace from it. An escape from that panic. |

There is so much desperation in this. The form is very fitting, the few words in each line felt like they were dragging on the pain. |
