Anxiety

Anxiety

It eats you up from the inside out, knowing nothing else but the ensuing panic of spilled emotion like red silk pouring over sun kissed cheeks shimmering with tears. Anxiety, when your stomach starts to roll like thunder clouds over misted moonlit trees. Anxiety, the pounding of your strangled beating heart, like drums beating out a rhythm while the sky begins to cry. Maybe someday it will be gone. Maybe its a good thing that its here. But for now we who suffer must dilute our minds with medication, hoping for a cure that might not exist.

    Endless peace
    Weighted and heavy

    The small earthy creature unfurls from its curved in body, smudged with dirt from a winter's sleep.
    It blinks its large spring green eyes, blinded by the ever-shining sun.
    The creature is a wood sprite. Her name is Petra.
