She panics, panics, panics – unsure why:
Anxiety, unvalidated fears…
She asks herself what’s wrong: There’s no reply.
There’s just the silence that assaults her ears.
Her mind, so frantic – searching, finding not
Her heart beats violently, her breath comes fast
And now she wonders: Why does she feel caught?
What triggered this and when will it have passed?
Confused and nervous, scared and overwhelmed
She crawls in bed and pulls the covers tight
She grabs her pillow, wanting to be held
And then she reaches up, turns off the light
The stress of being anxious wets her eyes,
This girl who now breaks down, breaks down and cries.
