Anxiety is a fickle foe
It breaks you down
Slowly, Slowly,
Until you can't
Take it anymore
It consumes your every thought
Every feeling
Every cell In your body
You just can't
Break free
It drowns you
Slowly, Slowly
Until you fall into the blackness
Until you can barely breathe
It consumes you
Like a fire
As the flames
Consumes you
Slowly, Slowly,
Until you feel and think and breathe
And live
No more
Anxiety is a fickle foe
It breaks you down
Slowly, Slowly,
Until you can't
Take it anymore

Your poem describes anxiety perfectly. After the twins were born I was so over-whelmed. It stayed that way for a long time. Now that they are 3 things are much better on me. If you are experiencing anxiety hugs to you.
