Description It's overwhelming.
Everywhere I'm staring,
But nothing is changing.
This isn't darkness,
This isn't crippling fear,
This isn't the possibility,
Of a life ending,
Of horrifying despair.
I know things will be fine,
But deep inside,
There's this constant worry.
Anxiety is gnawing at me,
I'm fidgeting,
Heavy breathing,
Frustrated and tired.
I'm under the wire,
It's cutting,
Time is chafing,
My bones are aching,
And I'm going nowhere.
I hate these things.
I don't want life to be simple,
In theory,
but I need a break.
I'm tired for tireds sake,
And I don't want to do this,
Not anymore.
In a closet hidden,
Rocking back and forth.
I'm not afraid of,
What's out there,
I just need to be,
Where no one can judge me.
It's just quiet here.
I can collect the thoughts,
That went scrambling off,
and get some peace of mind.
Either way,
I need a break,
Because this is all so....
Overwhelming.

Good job on this. I feel the same way sometimes. It always feels good to take a minute to yourself to collect your thoughts when the rest of the world troubles you.
