Fear of Covid
I cough,
I sneeze
Wait????
Do I have a fever?
Body chills?
Is this for real?
I can't believe it
The doctor walks in,
My heart is racing
Tylenol, motrin, and a hospital bed
Is all I'm chasing
Someone rush me there!
Symptoms all over again!!!!
Covid? A second time
I can't do this again!!!!
Scared, scared, and even more scared
Quarantine?
What does this mean?
My life,
Is it over?
Am I done?
Can't be,
I'm not the one!
All alone,
For hours and days
Can't stand & cook
Doordash is all I pay
Pray, pray and pray some more
I am too strong,
I can handle this,
I'm just over thinking
My head snaps,
When every mask comes off
Every sniffle,
Every runny nose
My anxiety takes over
My heart races
My legs feel weak
I hear my name!
Louder & louder!!
My eyes open, WIDE!!!
MY THOUGHTS IN MY HEAD,
ANXIETY DOES NOT HELP
I WANT TO PUT COVID TO BED!!!!
