Sometimes the anxiety creeps in and consumes me. Can’t sleep, can’t breath, can’t even blink. My heart beats out of my chest and feels like it’s a puddle on the floor. Tears silently stream down my cheeks the saltiness touches my lips and reminds me to breathe. I choke on the breath as I try to inhale every ounce of it. My ribs feel like they’re being crushed under the weight of this darkness. I don’t even know where it started, how it came to be. All I know is that it consumes me.

Anxiety
Sometimes the anxiety creeps in and consumes me. Can’t sleep, can’t breath, can’t even blink. My heart beats out of my chest and feels like it’s a puddle on the floor. Tears silently stream down my cheeks the saltiness touches my lips and reminds me to breathe. I choke on the breath as I try to inhale every ounce of it. My ribs feel like they’re being crushed under the weight of this darkness. I don’t even know where it started, how it came to be. All I know is that it consumes me.
