I sit in silence
Unseen and unheard
The world flowing around me
Like water, a blur
An earthquake shakes me
Down to my core
No one else feels this
I start to shake more
My body a vibration
The world a constant mountain
As I shake people don't notice
Of course not, they're too focused
Anxiety is no joke
Yet society sees it as one
It can be caused by anything
Or anyone
So stop with the plexiglass
Stop forming the barriers
Break the glass, step through the other side
Instead of saying "you're fine", your words a rapier
rapier: (n) a straight sword with a narrow blade and two edges
plexiglass: (n) a light transparent weather resistant thermoplastic

In case you didn't know what those words are :)

Goodbye Goodnye
I have Left You
Yes
I have Left You

Stolen Lied And *****
Yet Stronger
These Deeds Nothing
In This War
Called Faith

No, I Shall Not
Be Yours

Soul
Cloaked
In the Garmets
Of Its Choice
Secretto Amore

For None
Shall Make Me Theirs
But By Divine Right
And For You
A Candle in
The Window
Of Dissolving

— The End —
