Anxiety is an angry beast It has crooked teeth and yellow eyes And if it wasn’t clamping it’s jaws on your neck It might even be funny It’s always there A shadow in the daylight And a ghost in the night It peeks around doorways and hangs in pictures It lives in your bed Your house And there is nowhere that is safe Deep breathing is an aspirin for a stab wound Fighting back is a bandaid for a bullet hole So instead we sit And we never stir And we hope that maybe our brains will quiet Or our breathing will stop Because anything is better Than that crooked beast that taunts me Anxiety

monsters
In the land of Gods and Monsters I am a fallen angel living in the garden of evil Every creature there is ruled by needs that are primeval With broken wings, broken heart, broken life Living on the edge of a knife One wrong step will be my last Long ago my die was cast Every night the monsters attack Of my soul they make a snack The Gods look on and laugh and point I cry, I plead, but they will never anoint I'm lost, I'm scared, but I'm trapped I can go no where And there is nobody that loves or cares And of all the wrong to me that's been done Being left all alone is the most tragic one
