4am Anxiety

A Poem by David Elijah
"

aprilsixth2018. A rap: a hook, a verse, a hook, a verse, a hook, a verse.

"
I know I'm not there yet but I'm scared at the thought of.
Me discovering a level below rock bottom.
What might become of me after I'm underground rotten.
What if God decides that I am to be forgotten. 


I'm confused thought I knew where my home is.
I've considered the idea being homeless.
Searching online trying to find me a tent.
Or months from now I'll be stressing out trying to pay rent..
I've considered trying to busk in the hustle down Pike Place.
But it rains regulation paid permission mind change.
Back to hell guess I'll settle with my parents no question.
Live with my mom my sister and depression..

I know I'm not there yet but I'm scared at the thought of.
Me discovering a level below rock bottom.
What might become of me after I'm underground rotten.
What if God decides that I am to be forgotten.


Got anticipation but no patience.
Not emotionally strong enough for further education.
I stay locked up in a loveless basement.
Nothing here to do but this conclusive observation..
Says the basement's metaphorical it represents my state.
In which lies a vibe against me of resentment and hate.
My brain's innate attitude stays favoring the blackness.
Cause maybe shade can keep their eyes away from my sadness..

I know I'm not there yet but I'm scared at the thought of.
Me discovering a level below rock bottom.
What might become of me after I'm underground rotten.
What if God decides that I am to be forgotten.


In honesty nobody even talks to me.
My addictions got buried in me far too deep.
Whatchu trying to say? I don't know you.
Who are these people? I need to be alone soon..
Why does no one like me? I'm a golden tool.
Why did I push away everyone I knew.
Why won't I reach out? Why can't I reach out.
Well I can't move my arms six feet underground..
I'm helpless I should drown in peroxide.
Or maybe get through to my head with a long knife.
Or maybe eat cake until i die of a heart attack.
I wonder how all my fake friends would react..
