The Scariest Thing

by @zoerelleh

The scariest thing is not being able to trust your own mind. It is my woeful enemy shooting me from behind. Filled with nerves and harsh thoughts i battle salty streaks and stomach knots. I have no appetite and get no sleep maybe its why i seem and feel so weak. And while i try to understand this corruption the anxiety and depression continue their introductions. So theres a reason my mind and heart weep over my broken thoughts that run so deep. My doctor tells me this is "common" that "others have it and are doing awesome". But even though i know the stats it doesn't make me feel any less like shattered glass. And at the end this monster will take over its slowly growing and getting closer and closer. So dear friend, watch out for your mind or you'll end up with a monster who is incredibly unkind.
