Poetry

Falling Apart

Shredded nerves jump
Exhausted adrenals
Ready to flee
Reluctant to fight
Every little unknown
A perceived threat
In a pit of anxiety
Swallowing burning fear
Trying to keep it together
The façade of normality
But healing finally found
In falling completely apart
And standing up again
