Anxiety I

On, off, on off.

The faucet is stuck on

and the water won’t stop

pouring out, overflowing.

 

No matter what,

the water continues to

gush, filling the sink

overflowing onto the floor.

 

Flowing down the white porcelain,

slowly filling the room

until it swells, about to burst.

 

That’s it. Can’t take it.

Filled to the top ready

to explode. Completely overwhelmed.

 

The room is flooded

You made me have anxiety just reading this. lol No just kidding but this was a very interesting metaphor to describe anxiety. If there was ever a read that didn't know the feeling, I think this poem can give them a very good idea. It's an interesting visual.

I like it!
