Paralysing doubt and shame Tension rising, distorts the brain Quickened breathing, panic builds Shaking, reeling, hot sweats run chilled
These walls may feel like they’re closing in But the horizon is ever growing This world may feel like a dying rock But new seeds are ever sowing
Terrorising the inner self Not prioritising happiness and health Addressing ailments, every cut and cold Ignoring the one that makes us whole
No matter how dark it gets I need to know it’s not just me in this So when I can’t see the light I’ll remember it exists
Learned to believe that the sky may fall The world against me beyond my door The growing dread tells me to hide away But I’ll take control – I won’t be afraid of today
