Baseless
Nobody knows
I’d rather not tell
Anxiety grows
I’m under a spell
The reason is vague
I cannot explain
I’m pained with this plague
But feeling no pain
What goes on inside
Is hidden from you
As though I have lied
Of things I’ve been through
Your torture is clear
Evident are your trials
It’s thicker than fear
A sickness worth while
While I remain weak
I struggle the basics
You cringe when I speak
Over something so baseless
