My anxiety pulls me in my room and locks the door My anxiety throws out the key that never existed and taunts me Makes me think I am not loved Makes me not reflect on my actions that cause pain Makes me feel crazy even though I am not Makes me feel like I am the only one in the world that feels this way My anxiety ruins the good things in my life and turns it around to hurt me But my anxiety can't hurt me My anxiety is only in my head AND because of this I have overthought and painful thoughts about what is going to happen to me so I stay in a state of fear Torture Anger Sadness I have even thought of how it must feel when I am gone But once I thought that I realised once I am dead I am dead and who knows if you still feel the pain or not So I decided to keep on living to get rid of this constant anxiety and live a better life. SO But my anxiety does not define me It does not define my actions My thoughts My pain My happiness My tears MY anxiety will not lock me in my own room in a state of fear and sadness MY anxiety will not take away everthing I have ever loved and will love in the future I threw my anxiety out the window and made a key to get my self out of this room And If it comes out I will throw it out over and over again and find and create new keys with the heart of people and my own And although my anxiety is an emotion that makes me hate myself I will continue to love myself and stay the amazing person that I know I am and not change for something that is insignificant and cruel as anxiety And I will learn to grow, love and learn to never Ever let anxiety define ME And so should YOU
