The Storm

Clouds move in

Thunder rumbles and lightning cracks

Rain drizzles on our heads

She

Gives me her jacket to cover my head

We make a run for the house

I miss the sun that

Shines

Bright in the sky

I dream of soaking in the sun

As we run through the puddles I fall

Down

My clothes covered in mud

I get up, aching of pain

Sprinting to the door

Like

A cheetah chasing its prey

The rain gets harder

Wind blows through our hair

The

Trees are waving at us

Leaves zoom through the air

All I wish for is the

Sun

The wind is relentless

I hear a snapping nearby

The tree is falling down

On

Top of me

She grabs my arm just in time

Breathing heavily, my cheeks are

Hot

From running with fear

We’re almost home

So close, I can smell the

Summer

Breeze crawling in

The clouds are lifting up

These are some crazy

Days

Crush

I remember

Watching you walk

Down the hallway at school

A slight smile

took over your face

Books in your arms

Along with a pencil box on top

You stand in front

Of your locker

Struggling to open the door

What your arms behold

Fall to the floor

Books and Pencils

scattered everywhere

You bend over to pick them up

As you exhaled

Harshly with frustration

I figured that

Something was wrong

I knelt down to help you

Pick them up

We look at each other

Slowly standing up

You reached to

Grab your belongings

From my hands

Your soft fingertips

Glide across my hand

Butterflies appear

Fluttering in the stomach

You look at me one last time

Before you give me a shy grin

Your smile shines

Like Polaris in the night sky

It was at that moment

I knew that I found

My way home

Anxiety

I lied and told you that I was busy

I’m panicking and my heart is beating quickly

Sitting in my room trying to slow my breath

Silently thinking and worrying myself to death

Contemplation and perspiration take over my body

Uncontrollable shakes are my only embody

It’s more than just worry, some get paralysed with fear

Feeling lost and broken on the inside, on the outside I don’t shed a single tear

Forcing a smile on my face so others don’t see my pain

I can’t help but listen to the voices inside my brain

“Are you okay”? People ask, but I respond with the usual “I’m fine”

That way no one can hear the strength in my voice quickly decline

My anxiety is the longest relationship that I’ve had

Knowing that it’s the only thing that wont leave my life makes me glad

It’s not a illness, but most consider it as a disorder

I’m not necessarily okay but not bad either, just right on the border

I can’t help but feel as if I did something wrong

As the thoughts run through my head my heart beats as loud as a gong

I’m shaking uncontrollably. There is no stopping it

I feel like fell into an endless pit

An endless pit of hopelessness, fear and worry

I can’t even walk through a store without being in a hurry

I stay in my bedroom all day

Wishing I could just build up the courage to walk into a little café

These waves of anxiety form from deep in my mind

Every thought in my head becomes intertwined

My worries keep me up until early morning hours

I like to think that being able to get out of unwanted plans are my superpowers

Everyday becomes a longer battle

Walking around my house is even becoming too much for me to handle

My stomach starts churning

I can’t go a single day without hurling

My life has come to be pretty dull

All I want to be is normal

My anxiety is a constant war
