Anxiety

Beat *pause pause pause* 

Beat *pause pause pause*

Beat *pause pause*

Beat *pause pause*

Beat *pause*

Beat *pause*

Beat Beat Beat Beat....

The anxiety takes over me. It starts at my head and rushes to my feet.

Similar to diving into a pool, it consumes me.

I feel nervous as if I'm performing the national anthem at the Superbowl

Feeling like the weight of the whole world is saddle style on my back.

I take one deep breath and I start to feel like myself again.

The second deep breath exterminates the butterflies fluttering in my stomach.

The third deep breath takes the load off my chest and I can breathe again.

I'm me again.

I'm free again.

This is how it feels to have anxiety.
