A dense cloud of anxiousness drenches my being
My vision blurs as toxic tears prevent me seeing
I want to scream, but then swallow it down
My fake facade tries to smile, but displays a frown
Why misery drags me to my knees; I just don’t know
I search for an answer, but have forgot the question
There’s many possibilities, but I’m open to suggestion
A thick mist of nervousness destroys my contrition
My brain fogs as lethal waves build my suspicion
I need to shout, but then gag on the word
My fake veneer discloses a mind, lost and absurd
Why misery drags me to the floor; I just don’t know
I trawl for an answer, but can’t recall the question
There’s many possibilities, but I’m open to suggestion
