Triggered

Panic rages

Anxiety attacks

Fear abounds 

 

How to make it stop

Weather it?

Fight it?

 

Breeding ground for inaction

Paralyzation lives here

 

Don't get stuck

Don't get stuck

Don't get stuck

 

This road is a round about

Circles, circles, circles

 

Direction is lost

Future is bleak

Round and round we go

 

Breathless

On your knees

Begging for mercy from others

 

You can only it provide to yourself

It never arrives

Until you give it to you

 

This poem is about: 
Me
My family
My community
My country
Our world
