Anxiety rolls away in my tummy, My heart flutters, My head screams, It's nonsense, Nothing and everything all at once. There's no reason for it, No understanding, But there it is, Needling me, Torturing me, And there isn't anything I can do, But to ride it out, Smile it away, "Fake it until you make it." But will I? Can I? There is no other option, So I just do it, And hope it fades quickly, God help me. These moments, They just ****. But at least I'm alive, That thought always helps me through it.
