Anxiety:
It's when your hands keep shaking
and "everyone hates me,"
I know it's not my fault,
but do the ones I talk to do?

Anxiety:
It's the ex-boyfriends who never understood
why you apologized so much
for things you had no business apologizing for,
and them not knowing that telling you to stop
and showing their annoyance
would only make it all worse.

Anxiety:
It's when the tiniest thing
can set you off
and make you believe that the people you love
couldn't care less about you,
even though there's piles and piles of memories
that can knock that thought
out of the deathly waters of your mind.

Anxiety*:
It's when
absolutely,
positively,
nothing
feels right anymore.

I had a mini anxiety attack earlier and I just had another one and they **** so I wrote this.

When life is getting you down,
And you need a little hope.
Look deep down inside yourself,
And you'll find the way to cope.

When life is getting you down,
And you need a little love.
Go to the person whom you are the closest,
As the rest they are above.

When life is getting you down,
And all you need is a laugh.
Find the friend that makes you smile,
They may even be your staff.

When life is getting you down,
Don't allow it so.
Change the way you think of life,
And life will be better, you know.

When life is getting you down,
Take time to pray
Don't allow yourself to frown
God will help you see the good in the day.
A friend of mine needed a little pick me up.... Everything is going to be okay, I promise.

Just one more
Maybe five
I can never reach my goal
It keeps getting lower

Today is the first time in a while
A full meal was eaten
My tummy got full
But maybe too much
It's like I can feel myself getting
Bigger

I don't like it
I wish it would stop
But I let it keep happening
It's like I've lost control

My ribs
My collarbone
They are becoming more visible
How is no one noticing?
Do they just not care?

All I need
Is for someone to care
For someone to assure me
That everything will be fine
In the end

I need someone to tell me
I'm beautiful
But I need it to be believable
I'm sorry if you've told me before
And I didn't believe you

These voices in my head
They're tearing me apart
They might end up being the death of me
Whether it be starving
Or I pull the trigger

I wish it would all be over
I wish I would be happy with myself

I'm 10 under my initial goal
But now it's 10 lower
How much longer will this go on?

Someone please help me
Is it Anna? I really hope not. I don't want that.

I'm strong and then weak
I'm happy and then sad
I have mixed emotions
I'm always dreading the bad
And wondering where will it end
Im trying to fill this hole
In my heart
Id tried letting go
Of you
But yet I'm still holding on
To something that's no longer there
I have mixed emotions about you
And life
One minute I love you then
The next I hate you
One minute I'm here then
The next I'm gone
Sometimes I feel like gods
Calling me back home
One minute I feel alive and the next
I feel dead
I still think that one day
My phone will ring and I'll hear your voice again
I have mixed emontions
Its so many emotions
Like one minute I have faith then
The next I don't
Sometimes I wish
That I could just let go
Because I have
Mixed emotions...about you

Take a deep breath, look up to the stars,
it'll always make me remember who you are.
you look so far away, yet we're so near
but ill be there one day, and ill whisper in your ear
you have nothing to fear, for i am here.
whether in your heart or by your side
I'm with you for life, even through death.
nothing will stop me..
To make sure your safe, i would lose my wings
to watch you fly while the angels sing.
They may say i have fallen, but i'll just look up and smile
for i have already fallen...
fallen for you.
I pray to god,
that someday I may wear my heart
On my sleeves
Instead of my eyes.
