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

Poetry: Anxiety
by David Betzer
Schizoaffective Meditation
On the opaque notes of the Cello
I drift, a body caught on the thick waters
where the Jordan
the stress is bothering me
i cant stop the anxiety
life is hard lately
what am i growing up to be?
the train runs threw my mind
keeping
From north or south, or east or west,
It welcomes pain as its humble guest.
It hits you like the devil’s breath,
And
by Rita Gemmell
Where is my purse? I left it there!
I always put it on that chair.
I know where I put it, I always do.
What do you mean? I'm
There are bats in the tower
And at the darkest hour
They fly against the moon
In a black, black shower.
I hear the owl hooting
