Anxiety
Thoughts
Tick tock
Thoughts and thoughts
Tick tock
Heartbeat pounding
Tick tock
Lungs seizing
Tick tock
Failing to expand
Tick tock
Hands trembling
Tick tock
The tides pull me under
Tick tock
Calm sea
Tick tock
Turns to cyclone
Tick tock
Serene water becomes violent
Tick tock
Each wave coming in stronger
Tick tock
Thoughts collapsing back on each-other
Tick tock
Twisting and winding together
Tick tock
Realities and fears bleeding together
Tick tock
inseparable
Tick tock
Breathe
Tick tock
Breathe
Tick tock
Breathe
Tick tock
Closed eyes
Tick tock
Starve the wolf and he dies
Tick tock
Don’t give in to him. I stand my ground. I am strong.
Tick tock
I am sea glass. Rough waters only shape the person I am today. More beautiful with every tumble.
Tick
The ceiling above me buckles. Shattering glass floats around me. My chains falling to the ground. Time disintegrating. No hands pushing me around.
Only my own pulling me up.
