Anxiety
How do you get rid of the fear? For it domineers.
Blind with open eyes, hearing deceiving lies.
Clogs your mind, unable to be kind.
Stepping on pins and needles, flickering light of the candle.

Forming a senseless, kind of restlessness.
Mild or severe, months or years.
Running through your veins, making you go insane.
It tarnishes your soul, swallowing you whole.

Losing your sparkle, chills up your spine to startle.
Overthinking thoughts, transforming into a petrified robot.
Spinning out of control, taking its toll.
Tunnel visions of an inner war and mines, unable to define.

Stubborn nightmares, trapped in "stop and stare".
It will rewind and repeat, dragging your feet.
Waves of insomnia, sleep kidnapped by the Mafia.
At will, it fills, kills you with sleeping pills.

Nights of silence, the torture of mental violence.
Manipulative plagues, struggling to disengage.
A bodily chemical reaction, causing conscious distraction.
In utter confusion, a transfusion of delusions.

These shadows lurk in the background, deafening surround sound.
Self-slaughter, swimming in murky waters.
Consumed by uncertainty, no guarantee of warranty.
Dark schemes so extreme, but it's not what it seems.

A gruesome kingdom, desiring to attain freedom.
Depleting your willpower to live, breaking your hard drive.
Forced into psychiatric wards, praying to our Lord.
This is anxiety, a calamity created by society.
