Anxiety.

Anxiety.

I’m exhausted yet I cannot sleep
I am famished yet don’t want to eat
I need to run until I leave the past behind
Yet I’m too weak to stay on my feet

I feel sad yet I cannot cry
My blood has run yet I won’t die
I know that once again I’m failing
Yet I remain too afraid to try

I want to leave yet I know I’ll stay
The night has long ended yet it isn’t day
And although I see the world in black and white
I know that it is truly shades of gray.
