Fear is gripping me,
It's getting harder to breathe,
Life is taking a hack at me,
With a scythe.
Anxiety's stalking me,
Refusing to leave,
Worries are worming their way through,
I'm so screwed.
Frustration's plaguing me,
Making me want to flee.
Hopelessness is crawling it's way up ,
Every limb.
I wish I could turn back time,
Fix the mistakes I made,
The Friendships that got frayed,
Take back the things I said.
Change the way my life had been led.
My life is being grated,
Everyday goes by like I'm sedated.
Good luck is a traitor,
My common sense has a crater,
Happiness is so sublime,
I wish I could turn back time.
Author's Note : This poem came has an inspiration when i was slithering into depression during the hectic months for my O level preparation.
