There's an ocean in my chest,
waves crashing, as I drown from the inside out
My eyes are flooded,
tears rolling down in a constant flow
There's quicksand in my stomach,
rapidly sinking to somewhere deep inside of me
My legs are plagued with earthquakes,
quiverings and twitches beyond my control
There's a tornado in my head,
thoughts whirling around in a deadly fashion
My body and my mind are a disaster
and there's no refuge in sight

There's an ocean in my chest,
waves crashing, as I drown from the inside out
My eyes are flooded,
tears rolling down in a constant flow
There's quicksand in my stomach,
rapidly sinking to somewhere deep inside of me
My legs are plagued with earthquakes,
quiverings and twitches beyond my control
There's a tornado in my head,
thoughts whirling around in a deadly fashion
My body and my mind are a disaster
and there's no refuge in sight
Ramblings of an anxious, depressed teenager.
