Anxiety

Maybe it’s the silent thought Death and destruction, the darkness is the place I was taught Maybe it’s the shadows that blur my vision in the daylight My battle with anxiety seems to be a never-ending fight I used to be scared of the nightmares that haunt my dreams But lately feel comfortable with them or so it seems Found myself continuously losing sleep Feeling like I’m stuck in a pool of worry, drowning in the deep Maybe it’s in my head but still torments me Or its just who I am and without it who would I be I stay indoors, society makes me nervous Keeping away from people is my social service Society constructs a constant need for consummation The flame the fuels the fire fills the void meant for separation Please don’t mind me but it seems society fuels my anxiety
