Blues greens and black swarm my sight,
I try to focus but it's a hopeless fight,
Every day seems to be the same,
Anxiety and doubts I'm unable to tame,
I try to focus and I try to calm down,
But all I hear is a voice calling me a clown,
My parents ask if I'm sure I'm good,
Instead of talking I simply eat food,
Walking through the halls drowning people out,
My face seems fixed in a permanent pout,
They say just stay in the now,
But I've never once heard them say how.
