Anxiety
I can do this.
I know I can.
This is what I have been
training for my whole life.
But this is not what I excel at.
I am not a poet,
I can't write what I feel.
I can barely tell myself what I feel.
Does it need to rhyme?
I can do this:
Feeling into thought,
Thought into words,
Words written down.
Is it any good?
Why do I have to be told?
I can do this.
I need to do this.
I am finished.
I think it is okay,
But the question is,
Will they?
