Anxiety

highnotepoet56:

There’s an antsy ache gnawing at my insides,
spitting restless poison into my system
black bleeds on crimson canvas

Muscles twitch and buzz,
I must remember to breathe
electric volts spit fire

Jaw clenched and sore,
my teeth must be near shattering
glass shards splintered red

From the pressure knotting,
twisting its roots inside of me,
wrapping around my lungs,
and tearing through the soft tissues
of my heart
rip raw rip raw
