Why am I so anxious

Why am I so anxious?

I really do not know.

I know my thoughts 

are irrational, 

but that doesn't make them go!

I try so hard to reason

with the voices in my head

But the voices overpower me,

So I listen to them instead...

I know I shouldn't worry

I know I shouldn't care.. 

I shouldn't over think things

Look for problems that aren't there.

And yet I can not fight it

This feeling deep inside

The anguish that I'm feeling

Is something I can't hide.....

The more I try to fight it

The more it grows and grows

How do I make it go away?!

Goodness only knows!!
