Her Anxiety

 




Her Anxiety

© by Bud Lemire on Jan 23, 2021


She lived with fear once before

Knew enough to kick it out the door

She conquered it, and came real far

Jumped real high, over every bar


When Covid came, she battled fear

It came around, and was quite near

Attacking her with all its might

Yet she had won, despite her fright


After Effects of this virus, ever so mean

Can not be heard, can not be seen

Inside she felt it, taking control

Anxiety's Moment had caused a hole


The common things, she did day to day

Was replaced by fear, and she had to stay

Rapid heartbeat, stomach very upset

She was always home, she couldn't leave yet


It took all she had, as it grew

Out of control, and made her blue

The simple things, she once overcame

She couldn't do, Covid was to blame


Yet still she tried, and would continue to try

Because a life like this, only made her cry

She would conquer this virus and win

Because to her, her life meant everything


She will keep trying. It won't be easy. So

many don't realize what people who have

had Covid have to deal with after you've

had it. Of course many who haven't had

it deal with so much as well. This Pandemic

has caused many issues within the mind.

Understanding and listening is the key.
