Challenge
Lets shed some reality on mental illness. It's not cute, it's not a joke and it's not an excuse:
Write about a panic or anxiety attack.
I'd love to see poetry, short stories and glimpses into who you are.
Good Morning, Old Friend.
I awake to
Spring showers
Each drop
A tick tick,
Percussion parade.
The alarm rings 8
And like a curtain cue
The sky lifts her skirt,
And light
Bathes my bedsheets.
I am a warm wayfarer
Surfing sanguine
But barely breathing
Drowning
In anxiety
Before my feet
Have hit
The cold floor.
