Mr Anxiety
I feel like I am drowning
Cant pull myself ashore
Floating further away
From the me
I Know no more
Sinking in my thoughts
crippling in self doubt
Please try not to listen
Let the negative thoughts be out
I feel like I am trapped
Stuck within my head
Overthinking
Worrying
I should be looking ahead
Replaying failed scenarios
From years and years ago
Why are they so relevant
Only Mr Anxiety knows
My smile it hides my struggles
My mask it hides my fears
My forehead slightly sweating
Here comes a few more tears
My body's tight with tension
My heart in rapid beat
I must stop giving my attention
To Mr Anxiety.
