Breathe, just breathe

 
Existing through a dense fog
unable to function, your mind begins to leave
freezing thoughts looking for danger
at every turn
Loss of appetite, uneasiness without
reprieve.
You are often viewed upon as a freak
Concentrate on your breathing,
breathe, just breathe
You don't need to speak
Apprehensive, unwarranted emotions
running wild through your head
jumpy and scared, your whole being tense
Curled up crying uncontrollable on your bed, roar emotions leaving you blind
trouble concentrating, feeling out of your
comfort zone
This constant heaviness in your mind
Breathe, just breathe
You don't need to speak
forever stumbling in the dark
Irritable and alone, insecurities at their peak
For the bullies of this world, someone battling anxiety is an easy mark
as they are self centred and uncaring of your needs
Ignorant and lacking empathy they will trigger you
basking in the glory watching as you
lie on the ground and bleed.
These toxic people have a vicious streak
pay attention and keep your calm
concentrate on your breathing
you don't need to speak
Breathe, just breathe
cut the ties and avoid them at all costs
Look after yourself first and fore most
their lack of understanding will become
their greatest loss
