All legends don't grow old and toothless
I don't want to suffer from pain in my 80s
Depression already took a toll on me in my 20s
Life is so full of tales,
Anxiety and Depression might make me lose my faith
Who can fill this space?
i feel lost on earth, I can't be found in space
Anxiety has made great men become depressed
I'm only 20 and already battling with mental sickness
Anxiety and Depression became my friends
I felt a thousand needles piercing my brain
All this for fame I won't take with me after I'm dead
I wish I could go back in time
I don't want to grow old yet, watching as time flies by
Already growing old and toothless
I don't want to suffer from pain in my 80s
Depression already took a toll on me in my 20s.

This was so poignant and emotional. Loved your poem!
Anxiety sure can be hard to deal with and you address that so well here.
