Anxiety Poem by Ronald Timurth

You shouldn't judge me, I'm few and far between.
Don't sit there judging, inside my head is unseen.
I may stand in silence, but I take it all in.
Our worlds aren't so different, we live it in sin.
There's masses of voices, ones that keep me quiet.
Inside we're not different, so don't imply it!
Maybe you sense, that I don't belong
If you got to know me, you'll be proven wrong.
I try to be communal, but I have slow social growth.
I feel my life is infertile, this life that I loathe.
'Get yourself out', that's what people say.
'Meet other people, get your nerves out the way'.
But when the time comes, for me to get out.
I converse in my head, give myself doubt.
You say that I'm keeping my-self isolated,
But this world is so cruel, and my views get slated.
You call me bitter, and it gets me frustrated.
So I will keep my silence, leave you uneducated
I want to get out, and join society,
I want to scream out loud, EFF YOU ANXIETY!
