The anxiety,
The fear gripping everywhere,
The labored breathing,
Can't shut it off.
It doesn't want to go away.
Deep Breaths..
100...97...94...91...88...
It's coming back.
What if I'm not good enough?
Not fast enough,
85...82...79...76...73...
Not going to win,
Get a's,
70...67...64...61...58...
Don't mess up,
Be good,
55...52...49...46...43
Don't fall below a B,
go away, go away, go away.
40..37..34..31..28..25..22..19..16..13..10..
Don't worry you'll be fine,
Don't listen to those voices in your head.
Be happy don't listen,
Block it out,
Turn up your music,
Run.
Deep breaths..
7......4......1......
Good,
It's gone.
