Anxiety
There's a knock on the door
I said don't come in
Anxiety lives beneath my skin
It sits on the couch
which is my heart
tearing my whole world apart
It never cares to wipe its feet
trailing my chest
with bright red streaks
Get out of my house
this isn't fun
oh my God my arm is numb
Pick up your **** I want you out
I can't even scream
I can't even shout
Close the door
behind you tight
I hate this ******* fight or flight
What did you steal what did you rob
I'm so confused
I'm in such a fog
It's all coming back now
I see it clear
Just exactly what I fear
...You've left the door cracked...
I'm new to anxiety. Started about seven months ago. I'm sharing my thoughts and feelings so far. I'm 24
