[hometext] => This poem was written a year ago...
[bodytext] => She worries about forgetting, She worries about remembering too much, She worries about being lost down the way, She worries about taking the wrong path. She worries about being excluded forever, She worries about joining the group, She worries about being lied to by all, She worries about knowing the actual truth. She worries to herself in her bedroom at night When she sits all alone and watches the sky, And the night sky is so dark it feels like a lid, Which causes her to worry about freedom and the lack of it, And then she worries about worry itself, And where do you go when you’ve hit that path? Her anxiety came to her at a very young age, But it never bothered her as much as it does today, And now it seems like worrying is all she does No matter what she does, No matter where she is, All she does is worry. She discovered a thing, But only one simple thing, That eases the worry and pulls her up, And then sometimes she feels like her hold self again, Even if it is lost for only a second, It feels good not to worry. This one little thing Is great to her, It helps her reach out From her deepening hole, And gives her a branch To grasp and to pull, Hopefully out of the worry. I bet your wondering what this one thing is, That gives her the strength to breathe and to live? It’s silly, really, just one little CD That she used to listen to before she caved in, The music within it holds memories from the past And brings them out when she doesn’t think she can last, Old memories from before she used to worry. Anxiety is something that grows and grows And it grows so big and it becomes too great, And soon there will be too much for her to take Until she just leaves and wanders away, To a hopefully happier, brighter day Where the worry cannot find her. But don’t worry about her, She has her CD, And with her CD she finally feels free, Free from all the worry.
