Anxious

A great video about anxiety.

Trying to keep it together
Feeling like I’m failing
I don’t explore these tears
Just below the surface
Their depth unfathomable
Confounded by their reason
Crippled by their agony
I succumb to the anxiety
Hide it all inside myself
As best as it can be
Hoping no one notices
That I’m slowly falling apart
