Anxiety Poem by Tracy Craighead

Anxiety

Rating: 4.8


The anxiety is choking me and my GOD I can not breathe
fear and anger consume my days and nights
I am tired but I can not sleep
because this tiger is real, and he is chasing me

Nice portrayal of Anxiety- a mental state which also involves fear and anger. The worst part is that it takes away our peace of mind and breeds depression. Thanks, Tracy.

Anxiety, just like fear is a bunch of sinister shadows. A shadow has no substance, it's only a magnified reflection of something small, that's why on facing anxiety squarely, one usually find it inconsequential. A well articulated piece of poetry depicting the ugliness of anxiety and its devastating effects. Thanks for sharing Tracy. Please read my poem MANDELA - THE IMMORTAL ICON.

Life's struggles are certainly enough. Strength is so much needed when you are given even more. It is great just to let others know how difficult it is. I thank you.
