I can't sleep very good because I have fears
Sometimes I fall asleep with my eyes full of tears

I'm scared of robbers, kidnappers, everything
I'm almost afraid of every living thing

Sometimes it's hard to even leave my room
'You're just lazy' that's what people assume

I've waited years with telling people because they won't understand
They think it'll be gone with a helping hand

But no, my fears are still here
There are times that I just want to dissapear

If I'm not here anymore the fears won't be either
But in front of my family I have to be a leader

I battle with anxiety every single moment
Sometimes, there isn't much enjoyment

Anxiety isn't a choice, like you're outfit for the day
Nobody handed me anxiety, and I surely didn't say it was okay

People think that when you're smiling you're alright
But sometimes I'm smiling to hide the pain inside

People think they know who I am
But about how I really feel they don't give a damn

I'm hurting and panicking about for others the smallest little things
Sometimes it feels like my head just spins

But we may not give up

We have to keep fighting our fears
Even though it takes years

But if you stand strong
People will get along

And realise that it's real
And they'll start to understand how you really feel

It'll still be your fight to fight
But at least people won't be impolite

Having anxiety at 15 isn't easy
But luckily I can visit a therapist weekly

So if you're dealing with anxiety
Don't listen to much to society

Just try to search for some help. Because I needed it too. And dealing with it on you're own burns you down.
