Tension builds far beyond
Draining life from my mind
Misgivings of myself
Staring back never helps
Sleepless nights foster a mind in overdrive
Relentless in its will to over analyze
The pounding
The crushing weight
Upon my chest
Is never put to rest
Stresses of the day multiply
As anxiety never subsides
To fret – to lie in a cold sweat
A mind overtaken by dread
The images feel too near
Constant reminders of all I fear
Anxiety raining down
Feet remain on the ground
Darkness swarms all around
Here again to knock me down
Free me from this numb state
Darkness grips as I wait
Stress cannot overtake
Don’t forget to breathe
