Wallowing

Fear has overtaken me

It runs rampant

My anxiety spruces it up even more

I don’t know how to stop it

I’m going to lose

Is losing so bad

Is the trauma of losing so bad

I can feel it in my bones

I see it in my eyes

I can feel my neck stiffen

Only thing I can do is move forward

I can’t stop moving forward

I must move forward

I breathe out my fear

I breathe out my anxiety

I breathe in my hope

I breathe in my kindness

I breathe in my love for myself

It’s going to be okay

Wallow in that fear

Wallow in that anxiety

I’m going to be okay
