i'm anxious
anxious is kind of a funny word
experiencing worry,  unease, or nervousness
sometimes you get anxious for no apparent reason
like me
sometimes you question yourself
why am i like this?
i have nothing to be worried about.
it just kind of happens
and you just have to deal with it

at this moment
i have so many emotions
am i sad?
am i happy?
am i jealous?
am i nervous?
am i insecure?
am i lonely?
am i intimidated?

at this moment

11 pm is the sound of you calling on skype,
12 am is the "I love you"s,
1 am is us in bed alone,
2 am is craving for contact,
3 am is wishing you were here,
4 am is red noses and puffy cheeks,
5 am is tossing and turning,
6 am is finally falling asleep,
11 pm, it all starts again.

i have a theory
i think we find happiness in books
movies
music
shows
or poetry
because we can't find it in anyone else
we can't find loyalty
someone to hang out with on a saturday night
so we

ourselves with these things
so we don't have to accept the fact
that we're all
