Bothered

Better believe it, my skin is crawling Over and out, I need to decompress There's nothing going on, just feel closed in Head is empty but full to bursting Ears ringing Relax I tell myself Easy when you know how Daydreaming, how I miss you

You did this acrostic very well. :)

It was like a little bit of pent up rage that I needed to get out - I never thought in a million years I'd like acrostics but they very much have their place for little poetic bursts that need a shove x

Feeling angst, dread, depression build up, taking a step back and observing the emotion so rising within, say, ‘I, the witness, see such and such feeling arise. It should not be there, yet it is. How astonishing!’ This is a well known mindfulness practice that is very effective.
