1 Anxiety (co-authored by Ryan Barrett)

A non-existent feeling of danger
Generating false insecurity.
Unwilling to engage a stranger but
Hiding in my mind with obscurity.
Hanging inside like a closet hanger
A darkened sense of prematurity
Like an overprotective park ranger.
Chewing my shirt to give myself surety
Being overwhelmed feelings of anger.
My frustration generates unsurety
This poor wall, victim of a headbanger.
Wanting to love, lacking in purity.
Turning my mind into its own chamber
Masking my sense of immaturity.
Ensuring myself, I don’t endanger
My body or mind, thanks to my durity.
