Essay Time
Anxiety is…
The thing about anxiety is…
My whole life I’ve had anxiety and…
I was going to write an essay about myself but,
I keep getting stuck.
I keep getting embarrassed.
I want to be stoic.
After a long night, a paper does make its way to her desk.
I decided not to write about myself.
I wrote about something else, I don’t remember what.
I got a B.
If I had written about myself…
Maybe I could have gotten a B+
Or maybe I would fail.
I’m ok with a B.
Anxiety is,
Something I don’t want to share, anyway.
