what anxiety feels like // I am an oxymoron



Sometimes I suppose I'm happy
Like when I'm with my friends
Throwing my head back with laughter,
But then the day turns to night
And my carefree grin turns into
An unexplainable sadness
Etched on my face like a tattoo.

And I lay in bed
Thinking of all the things
I wish I could say
All the things I'm afraid to admit,
It's nights like these when I realize
I am many things
I am happy and sad
Outgoing and shy
Rambunctious and quiet

But mostly I'm just empty.
