My Fear And I
Don’t give in to “THE FEAR” they said..
Sage advice, for a life lived in bed.
Do they not know, that it lives in the corner?
Projecting “WORST CASE” into my head?
Continuous prattle, this creature and I..
Don’t connect, just reject, continue to lie
Where you’re SAFE, in your space, I’ll make you feel warmer,
Coz out there’s a “WAR ZONE”, Eye for an Eye.
It’s been my Companion for many a year;
I don’t remember a life without you, My Fear..
Sickened, pulse quickened, this Gorilla Informer
Whispers twisted, sadistic, tales in my ear.
I fight the ANXIETY, Fear fed, to myself.
Must push up, must push through, BATTLE off this shelf;
Must be example for SON and for DAUGHTER!
If I starve it with HOPE, will Fear eat itself?

I feel for you, have not lived with the high anxiety, but have major depressive disorder. I know what it is like for life to overwhelm you. Making even getting out of bed seem impossible.
Thank you for the write.
