One of the mental illnesses I was diagnosed with was Generalised Anxiety Disorder. Now everyone experiences anxiety from time to time, but I wanted to share what it feels like for me. Not sure I captured that but this is what I ended up with.
Set Your Mind Free
In the heart's forest, when worries creep,
It's like a river that's really deep.
Imagine a bird stuck in a cage,
Feeling trapped, in a never-ending rage.
It's like thunder in a sky so calm,
Thoughts racing like a bomb.
Picture a ship lost at sea,
Feeling helpless, not knowing where to flee.
Think of a puzzle missing some pieces,
Or trying to hit a target that never ceases.
It's a web where thoughts get stuck,
An unseen battle, that runs amok.
Picture a scared dog's fast heartbeat,
Hearing whispers no one else can meet.
With lots of questions, answers far away,
It's a battle you fight every day.
And as the sea's waves crash and roar,
In the surf, you're tossed, wanting the shore.
But remember, there's strength to find,
A spark of hope in your mind.
Courage you can't always see,
You can face the storm and set your mind free.
