Anxiety

Like poisonous gas It fills my lungs Water rises As I slowly drown In my own thoughts Unforgiving It will not stop Looking up, I see a train It does not bother to halt It crashes through my skull Into my thoughts It goes by the name of ‘fear’ Soon comes ‘sadness’ Followed by ‘despair’ The sun will never rise Relief will never come The day forever dark It’s only just begun

Weston, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
