Swallowing the landscape,
I am open and afraid and bleed into the sky,
shaking in the light,
shaking in the darkness,
shaking in the ribbons of flesh tied around my bones,
shaking in the hollows and spaces that exist in my organs,
I am a-quiver with the feeling of being alive
and young
and stupid,
and terribly afraid.
Anxiety's been taking a pretty harsh toll lately. It's been a while since I've been able to post on here. I've been really down on myself about my abilities and have not been writing as much as I want.

Shaking... anxiety. Yes, the work does show that and it does register well. Although there are more emotions than just anxiety in my opinion. It has a deeper meaning. I hope all goes well for you!
