In the silence of night, my heart does race,
Grief and terror fill this empty space.
What ifs intrude, unsettling peace,
In this restless mind, fears never cease.

A chest burdened with invisible chains,
Anxiety’s touch, it leaves deep stains.
No rest, no calm, just endless dread,
Darkness and worry fill my head.

I seek solace, a gentle reprieve,
From the turmoil, the fears I weave.
But shadows linger, refuse to part,
Their icy grip tightens on my heart.

Oh, for a moment, to breathe and rest,
Without the weight upon my chest.
To find a light, to quell the storm,
In this life where fears are born.
