Can’t sleep,
can’t breathe,
can’t see myself,
can’t seek help—
can’t release
what kills me,
can’t be free
when anxiety
eats me inside.

Can’t think
with these lies,
about to sink,
heart's breaking,
mind’s deteriorating,
waiting alone
in the cold,
Waking up,
aching in pain,
Hurricane of thoughts
block my path,
don’t know
where to go—

Searching
for hope,
A light that might
cut through the
endless nights
