What Anxiety Feels Like (The Other Night)

I’m going to be fine I tell myself.

I close my eyes as I stand in the crowd.

I can feel my throat tightening.

It’s a cycle, I feel my breath shorten and it makes me feel like I can’t breath and the more I think I am having issues breathing the more I actually have issues breathing.

I hate being that person that has to leave early.

I hate being the person that ruins it for everyone because we have to come home early.

Why can’t I just be okay. I tell myself as tears run down my face.
