Anxiety


Everyday I find I'm more afraid
So I take my pills and face the day
Pretending that it's all gone away
I must confess

I do my job same as I always have
Smile my smiles, laugh my laughs
Nobody can tell that it's all an act
It's a lot of stress

I watch my kids with hope and love
Rowdy boys that push and shove
But in the end they laugh and hug
I know I'm blessed

But even when I'm not, I feel alone
Whether at work or at my home
At night I feel I might come undone
Nobody can guess

What do you do when nothing seems to help?
When you've tried everything to save yourself
What is there if there is nothing left?
I'm just a mess
