The despair brought about
by mental confusion
more then upsets,
it is emotionally disruptive.
It is like fighting for control of
your mental faculties
as you attempt to target
the source of your anguish
before it takes its final toll.
Your heart pounds;
it races like a speeding
locomotive without breaks.
Your blood pressure
explodes like an internal
volcanic eruption.
Your muscles tighten as
if wrapped in a straight jacket
or encased in a soaked glove.
You feel irritable, perplexed
and increasingly depressed
as anxiety challenges for
control of your mind.
You grasp your head
in fearful confusion;
you grow distraught
and desperate for relief.
You deplore this distress,
this foreboding and
solicitous anxiousness
that robs you of your
contentment and comfort.
You can't control the vexation,
the perplexing awful angst
that makes you stressed.
