Poetry: Anxiety

by Donna Kroll

Created on: April 18, 2009

Anxiety



There are times
When my anxiety
Threatens to overwhelm me
Overshadow my personality



Excessive worry
Tremendous doubt
Over some issues
That won't come about



Going over words
Again and again
Trying to make sense
Trying to stay sane



It's difficult to admit
But it's very real
Keeping logical thought
From spinning like a wheel



I'm trying to get this
Under control
But, please know,
I'm not playing a role



There will be some days
That I'll worry and fret
But I am trying
And I'll overcome this yet
