Anxiety

I’ve repeated my day over again,
This anxiety is my heavy chain
It’s always raining inside my head
This curse is filling me with so much dread.

Save me – From my mind

I’ve eaten the fruit of the forbidden tree
And now I’m left alone inside my misery
Pretending to be all self righteous and whole,
But I’m broken and empty in denial of my soul

Save me – from my mind
Hear me- so I can unwind

I’m caught inside and endless loop
A million whispers call to me
This curse I cannot control
Help me someone to find console 

I’ve eaten the fruit of the forbidden tree
And now I’m left here alone inside my misery
Pretending to be self righteous and whole
But I’m broken and empty in denial of my soul

I’m just an existence
Life has been sapped out of me
Yet I know I’m not alone
Hence I keep moving towards my goal

Cast aside by all the crew
This attack did not pull through
And as I’m down to my last page
This book I’ll burn and start a new
