  • Today

    I am crippled with anxiety
    the rain is coming down in a steady pace
    I want to curl up into a ball
    I think I have a stomach virus
    I could have gone to work
    I broke my cell phone earlier in the week
    a package came yesterday
    it is the replacement
    no one was here to get it
    it will come again today
    I had a low grade fever on Wednesday
    I would have stayed home on Thursday but I didn't want to use up any more sick time
    I stayed home today
    I think I have a stomach virus
    I sit around the dark apartment waiting
    I hate this
    I can't do anything
    there is clutter everywhere
    I feel alone in the world
    getting old
    getting older,  feeling more alone
    now I'm getting scared.
    I feel raw today
    the rain is coming down and everything is gray
    you can't see very far
    but other people are working
    the world is going on
    I feel regretful and guilty and I am crippled with anxiety
    the day is riddled with holes
    I can not grasp it.
