Anxiety
November 7, 2018
Waiting took time and patience,
But she didn’t have time or patience
She gritted her teeth and dug her nails
Into her skin, down to the bone
She cursed a sin and ran out the door
Her footsteps fell heavy against
The floor.
In and out, inhale, exhale
Her fingernails released her skin
And she was calm yet again.
