Anxiety

A feeling that fogs our judgment

A notion to believe that everything will never be ok

Hoax emotions shroud my reality, and I'm left in the darkness to wander

Mind incapable of cherishing the good that will come because of trauma

Excessive contemplation that suffocates my mind and body

Trap by my thoughts that are becoming a living nightmare, not able to find a way out.

As I tremble, yet I can put a smile on my face and say, "I'm fine."

It's been some time I wrote.. and I guess for me, writing is a feeling or moment that I want to pour into words. But as you can see from my page, I'm not able to this for sometime, and I want to change that. After a long time, I was able to write, and this was the first thing that came to me. It was hard for me to write this because I needed to understand how I felt about this topic. I think many of us go through this silently, but I want to say you're not alone, and it's ok.
