ANXIETY

I'm sitting right here, restless,
too much pent-up energy, can't stay still, 
up all night, thinking
about things I have zero control over. 

I tell me: "Nothing's wrong with you"
Yeah right, that's really convincing
that's the point, I should believe myself 
easily, without batting an eyelid. 

But these neighbours,
constant blinking 
sweaty face
fidgeting hands and
racing heart
tell me softly:
"You lie".
