My Anxiety - An Animal

Music - Moonlight Sonata by Beethoven. (Would be great to if you listen to it while reading.)

A scared bird in the nest,

Whom I give the courage to fly

And when it does,it soars above me 

And becomes my dark sky.

I try to make it go away, 

But now it's an ant,

Trying hardest to reach its home - me. 

I try to make him fall but every time it courageously crawls, 

Till it reaches his destined home.

I am bitten by it,

And as I try to pick it and throw it away,

It now becomes a lamb,

So gentle, so pure 

And I can't help but love and nurture.

I play with it all day,

Hoping for it to stay, 

For now it is a friend I love,

And then it becomes an earthworm,

Deep inside my ground,

Making it it's abode, 

Relishing my dead past, 

And then it sits between the beak of bird,

Swallowed deep in to the gut,

But still fierceful, trying to break free,

Till the bird is scared,

A scared bird in the nest.
