The Predominant Emotion
#PredominantEmotion

Agitated and anxious,
Doesn't know how to rest,
Overthinking crawls in the brain,
Just like a bug invading the system.
Face has turned red,
Not due to anger,
But due to nervousness,
Too much riled up for what might happen.
The anticipation of the future,
The horrendous incidents of past,
Is making the present a disaster,
A flood of thoughts are making their way in,
Impossible to break free from the chaos,
Life's a ticking bomb,
Anytime this body would perish,
Into nothingness.
What if something goes wrong?
What if there's only emptiness left in my heart?
What if the body suffers from a terminal illness?
What if something happens to my loved ones?
What if I die?
What if I live but others don't?
What if I fail?
What if I'm left all alone?
And a million other what ifs,
Multiplying like a virus,
Unwanted and irremovable,
Too much to bear.
