Entry 4: Anxiety


This doorway is an entry to a mind game for my body
My lungs can't keep up breathing with my heart's uneven beating
This is uncontrolled and violent panic in the silence
The aggravated pressure I swallow in surrender

I ask one more time to hold me down
My knees are weak, I brace the ground

Escape to dimming vision void of conversation
I've let out all that's inside me, but I'm screaming into nothing

I ask one more time to hold me down
My knees are weak, I brace the ground
Is anyone here listening
My voice is lost from whispering

What could make this easy
What could make this easier

I drown in loud attack and wait for the sunrise
The voices soon will end
Dust will reach the earth
I'll find rest

The delicate reply takes truth by surprise
My beggar sound is heard
Dust will reach the earth
I'll find rest
