id rather be hated for who i am than be loved for someone im not, ill never be JUST a memory.


Save me from anxiety
Panic, fear-
Take them from me
I want to run
Set me free
Tell me how ok I’ll be
Remind me of the calming breath
When I take it I will forget
Why everything seemed such a threat
My heart stopped racing
I am calm
Now let’s see what had gone wrong

i have anxiety and i am in a class to help with it. one of the skills that help me most is the calming breath. this poem is about a break through with this skill, whereas my other poem on anxiety "ANXIETY ATTACK" is when it got the best of me.

Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take... but by the moments that take your breath away.

You are a good writer. To be able to share your thoughts and feelings with the world through a poem is a great talent... keep writing!

I am in love with this poem. Truly. Perfect. Five stars.

Check out my work if you can, it'd mean a lot coming from someone with your skills to tell me what you think :)

I have anxiety too, and have tried to write about it, but it's kind of overwhelming to me. Thanks for putting into words what I couldn't. Breathing is the most helpful for me too. :D
