The Anxious Mind

You turned my head inside out. Is this love? Maybe not.

The Anxious Mind

It doesn’t shout

it taps

a finger to the glass

checks the locks again

asks the same old question

what if

it turns the cup three times

then waits

for nothing to go wrong

it walks behind you

says your name

but not out loud

you breathe

but only half

you smile

but only when watched

it doesn’t need a storm

just silence

to start talking

it rewrites the text

then deletes the reply

then worries about that too

it is tired

even after sleep

and scared

even in calm

no reasons

just patterns

that never settle

no enemy

just fog

that thinks in circles

the anxiety lives in my mind

quiet as breath, constant as blood

no room for peace or pause

just thoughts I never asked for
