Anxiety

Anxious worry seizes my heart
Now my pulse quickens and wavers
X-ray my chest and find my heart's compression
I try to calm down but it's simply no use
The stress builds and the world spins
Every thought pushes me deeper into panic
Yesterday it was paying for my groceries

Megan welcome to the soup, good theme, but you have missed the letter 'T' out of your poem, easy to slot in though, good luck...David
