But anxiety is not a volcano
There’s no smoke warning
It is an earthquake that shakes you to the core
Without warning
Without consideration
Just like the earth, the problem comes from within
Your brain proving that is is an inevitably changing and moving being
Convergent plate boundaries form mountains to overcome
The aftershocks
The fear of it striking again haunts you
Anticipation as you await paralyzation
The next day comes damage control
How can I rebuild what has come tumbling down
We build stronger
sturdier
and with hope that we outsmarted it this time
We must have
But anxiety is not a volcano
There’s no smoke warning
It is an earthquake that shakes you to the core…
