~ Anxious Mind ~A Poem by Cbklyn4uFeelings towards a gripping emotion~ Anxious Mind ~ Born with a gift, unwanted as my be,
this emotion exists, do others see?
When my anxiety spurs and swells within,
wondering how did it all begin?
The rush of my breath, the race of my heart,
The sweaty palms, it begins to start.
To escape I want, to just disappear,
To calmness reclaims me, dispersing the fear.
I learned how to experience the feeling of hate,
I will not allow this to be my fate?
I spew out the anger, emotional tears,
Hovering over me for so many years.
Anxiety a normal emotion for most,
But for me it became my bodily host.
At once I had fear of what this may be,
But now I am the conqueror. It's my life you see!
