It follows me Into the room Into bed Into the morning Into every waking aspect of my day That niggling feeling that wont go away Setting the teeth to edge Making the bones hurt With its edgy, alertness Like at any moment my mind will freak out Tumble over the cliff side and explode into a mess of emotion The problem is I'm not sure what it will be What triggered it or where that pins and needle restlessness really came from All I know Is its here Intensifying Until tears well and fall The madness doesn't stop.
This is what anxiety feels like, punctuated over and over cyclical.
