You are a shadow to my heart  
That is broken, a whispering wind
Passing by, I hope to fight back to
To myself so I can soar higher again to be a man.  

You made my life a living hell till,  
I’m faded but I didn’t surrender.  
I fought back like simba,
To gain me back the scar remains in me.  

I hope you are happy now  
You broke me into million pieces
And gloated in my face  
I pray I no longer get broken again.

You've kept me out of trouble
Kept me safe
But you've also shielded me from such beautiful opportunitys.
Today was nice but I only heard you in my ear.
STOP IT!
youre supposed to protect me,
Save me when danger comes, but it turns out I should have been protected from you.
I do thank you for everything you've done but I can never forgive the life you've taken away from me
And now I'll say farewell old friend...
Or should I say enemy.
This is how I see my anxiety and I wish for it to stop holding me back from such good opportunitys. I decide what I'm afraid of, and when the time's right I'll welcome my good old friend anxiety back to do it's job.

— The End —
