Anxiety

In your head,
In your soul,
Your biggest regrets,
Your darkest shame,
It might not even be real,
The thought too,
But anxiety is,
And it will make you fall,
And crumble until nothing is left,
Left to starve of happy moments in its sea of depression and fear,
Its your anxiety,
And it wont go.

Breathe,
Some say it helps,
Some say it wont let them in,
But who are they to know,
How the shadows lurk within,
You feel it in your veins,
You feel it in your skin,
Wanting to escape,
But it always wins,
You think its okay,
But that's what it does,
Manipulates your mind,
Until you lose it that is,
You close your eyes to sleep,
Hoping this time the sandman will arrive,
But your growing weary,
Along with your mind,
Breath they say,
It cant come in,
But what do they know,
They cant read your mind,
hear your thoughts,
Or listen to your heart,
They cant hear your struggle,
Nor the pain within,
So you sit in the dark,
With the shadows within.

Where secrets lie,
people hide,
and honesty dies,
Gossip Town,
fake friends are made,
to your dismay,
all your secrets shared,
Gossip Town,
Truths are twisted,
Honesty evaporated,
enjoy your stay,
in Gossip Town.

To be honest,
to let all your secrets out,
the ones that keep you up a night,
the ones close to your heart,
the ones that make you happy to be alive,
the ones that don't,

to feel that sense of vulnerability,
to feel the judgemental eye under the skin,
to feel like your not alone,
to feel like you are,

to hear the voice of reason,
to hear the voice of doubt,
to hear the voice of understanding,
to hear the voice of disgust,

to be honest,
to let it all in,
you have to let it all out.

It's you and me
Your sitting on my lap
With my arms wrapped around you
Keeping you warm safe and loved
Forever In Love and life
My beautiful wife.
