It's too much for me
This life is too heavy a burden to bare
I can't deal with this constant fear
I can't deal with anxiety and panic
Clawing up my throat
Strangling me from the inside out
It feels like it's getting worse
It feels like it's taking over my life
I don't have the energy
To fight anymore
A ten year war with yourself
Is enough to destroy anyone
I feel like I've gone mad
Something's gone wrong in me
Something's irreparably broken
I want to give up
I don't want to struggle anymore
Swallow me whole
My worst enemy
My biggest fear
Myself
Take all that's left
I wave my white flag
Consume
Gone
The End.
