Before my eyes I see the points I miss,
flying away to unknown spaces.
I was also an inch away from a passionate kiss,
but I blew it, like I did with many other cases.
My brain is not thinking clear,
although my intentions are sincere.
My skills, knowledge and my cool,
went mute like the clueless fool.
My nerves are getting on my nerves.
Anxiety is dominating my life.
Sweating profusely, I'm soaking wet.
My vision fades to black.
Always shaking at the most important test.
At my final exams, my mind was stressed.
My heart storms with great force in my chest.
The terror called tension leaves me depressed.
Will it ever cease,
spreading like a disease?
Will I ever be in peace?
Give me an answer, please.

Very good!
Hey,
Great poem. You really captured the feelings of anxiety pretty well. I suffer from Anxiety, and I felt your description of it was very real. The rhtym and rhyme was very smooth, flowed very nicely. The only thing I can fault is, I'm not sure the line "my nerves are getting on my nerves" lol...but I've maybe made a mistake and not noticed something clever! Besides, it's a very good poem I enjoyed it.
Thanks for entering my contest, and good luck!
