Anxiety
It’s always there,
In the back of my mind,
Making me a nervous wreck.
The attacks that happen,
Leave me apathetic and depressed for hours-
T ears in eyes, body shaking -
I never quite know how to make it go away.
It comes to me at school,
At work,
While driving,
And home.
I feel pitiful and despairing,
Trying to find ways to fix it,
But it’s not fixable.
There’s a way to mute it:
With pills,
Xanax,
Zoloft,
Lexapro,
Prozac.
But they never truly help in the end,
Anxiety:
It always gets the best of me.
