Dear Anxiety

Info

You and I,I admit,was love at first fight.The harder we fought, the closer you crept in.But your cold handshakes and distant smiles are translating into something more cozy.Your random taps on my shoulder and surprise grabbing of waist from the back, it's starting to make me feel uncomfortable.It's like the air I never breathe in,is choking me up,it's like the water that I never drank, quenched me inside out.And for heaven's sake, I do not enjoy the coffee dates anymore. On the contrary,even  caffeine can put me to sleep I think, but you don't let me. Not that you make love to me all night.You terrify me with your hard cold stare that sends ripples down my train of thought and the train speeds up shuddering my mind's boxes jolting open one after the other.I just want to get a good sleep, wake up, dress up,show up at work you know.And you make it so hard for me. You show up every morning with your timeless melody "Goodmorning, I am here to ruin a perfect day my love".Not one of my favourite songs you see, I can do just fine without thinking how the whole room will resonate from the laughter when I stammer during my speech at work or how I avoid the awkward encounter with an acquaintance or what if a loved one dies today or the classic of all how do I say no to someone about something,what would he think of me? I haven't ever told you this before but even your brother- Suicidal Thoughts flirts with me. I ran into him at the station waiting for my train yesterday. He stood next to me leaning into my ears whispering " Jump in front of the train my dear, do you need a push?" He even made a call to your Papa Depression, asking me to talk to him, to convince me to accept one of his son's hands into holy matrimony. Seriously, what's wrong with you brothers?
I am so tired of both of you.I don't want any of you in my life right now.You are clingy, what we had was not special, your brother is annoying.
I don't want to be a part of your family.It's over!You and I are not meant to be. What we had, it was not special, admit it.I deserve better.
So here it goes, I am breaking up with you, don't call me,don't text me.I am blocking you from everywhere anyway.Goodbye!
