Anxiety Attack

The rain is falling,
The tears are falling,
I am falling.

Who will catch me.

The pavement.
I am never content,
My thought patterns bent
Against me.

I stare without seeing,
And with my whole being,
cry out,

Save me!

From what.

I wish I knew,
Wish I had a clue,
Wish these feelings were new,
But they're not.

Pray for me,
When you think of me.
Each day for me,
If you think of me.

I walk so fast,
Feet tripping on the grass,
Lungs feeling like glass,
Must have punctured them.

My world caves in,
Like the dark bearing sin.
I can't handle it,
I need to throw a fit,
And just scream.

It's all too much,
hands stretch to touch.
Back away,
Not here to stay.
Can't take these smiling faces,
Can't sit in joyful places.

Why not.

Wish I knew,
Wish I had a clue,
Wish these feelings were new,
But they're not.

Psalm 94:19
"When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought joy to my soul."
