Deep emotions are cutting me into pieces
Animated depression flowing into the stream
My blood requires purpose and sweet kisses
Anxiety rolls around when I’m singing the hymns
Racing thoughts, uncontrollable over-thinking
Difficulties concentrating, panic attacks
Feeling irritable, heightened alertness
Problems with sleep, changes with appetite
Fatigue, worthlessness, helplessness, hopelessness
Persistent sad, anxious, or “empty” feelings, suicidal thoughts?
I slowed down to ignore the pace of life
I’ve realized my thoughts didn’t have handle or a brake
I try not to look at my phone to cause strife
I take deep breaths and close my eyes to wake
I still feel irritable and sensitive
But I sleep covering my eyes and ears
I’ve gone on long casts to know the importance of food
I am still fatigued, but festive
I’m restive about finding purpose and all, but lessness is evil and fierce
Empty feelings still drive me nuts, but healing begins walking in the woods
