Stop the Panic


Fear closing in

all around me

trapping me in a box

 

The world keeps spinning though

keeps on spinning

I can't stop

yet I can't keep up either.

Everything's wrong...

Everything is so wrong.

A storm

a storm is coming.

I don't know where

I don't know when

But it is coming.

The fear the apprehension.

It's all too much.

Hello, my name is Anne-Marie. Welcome to my profile. I like to think of myself as a writer and advocate for mental health and invisible illnesses. Part of me struggles with my faith on a daily basis because of my sexual orientation. So a lot of my poetry is about coping with that and my health on a day-to-day basis. I don't define myself with my sexual orientation or my health struggles but they are a part of me; there's no denying that. I love to write dark science fiction about dystopic futuristic landscapes. I like to write strong female leads with a lot of emotion and feeling to them. I truly live, breathe, and enjoy writing. Thank you for reading this
