Weight

Straight to the bottom of my stomach
The feelings of dismay and anxiety
Overwhelm the senses in my mind
Unable to see through the haze of apprehension

I battle the sinking sensations
A warrior of positivity
Weak in this moment
From the heavy weight of despair

Telling myself it’s only a point in time
A single flash point of billions
One that will pass soon
Into the next, of my own creation
