anxiety

A Poem by Michael Nava

The anxietys of success linger inside,
apprehensive of the choices i've made.
abashed thoughts ensue my head.
Frustration settles in.
What will become of me?
How will I survive?
The pressures of life are becoming to much for me.
I fade into a dream to save myself .
I cant breathe the air out there , i'm afraid ill suffocate.
Frantic thoughts send my heart pouding again.
Every breath brings a new uncertainty.
expectations lie heavily inside me, anticipating fulfillment.
failure will not satisfy this beast, only anger it.
I cant endure this pressure,
defeat feels inevitable.
im breaking down
here it comes again...
