[[begin.]] <tt>
i am in deep,
[[*how so?*]] [[*what for?*]] [[*how do you mean?*]]
<tt>
i find it hard,
and harder to stop
the waves
[[*what waves?*]] [[*what do you mean?*]]
<tt>it is
hard to say....
i feel...
not really [[*sad*]] but more so....
i don't know.
like the skin on my heels is cracked.
like a hangnail
that i keep catching
on my blouse.
i feel lost, but centered
in my anxiety.
[[*what do you mean?*]] [[*what happened?*]]<tt>i am not
sure how to explain.
it is just the emptiness,
not just of being stuck........inside......
but like,
a feeling of welling up. like at any moment,
i could cry. i feel..... [[*sad*]] and yet not.....sad,
like
that feeling late at night on
a sunday
before school
when you feel like you
didn't do enough
with your weekend,
and its these little
anxieties....
little soft
waves of
worry.
[[*how so?*]]<tt>well....
the simple act of
breath
i am thankful for
but i am alone, even with
my partner.
[[*is everything okay?*]] [[*can i help in some way?*]]

[[*is everything okay?*]] [[*can i help in some way?*]]<tt>
i’m fine,
but this controlled
space, it makes
my legs feel warm
jets of anxiety.
i feel
[[*hurt*]] [[*sad*]]

<tt>no,
its more.....more like....
nothing outside
the gnawing
gnarling
pangs of
worry......
[[*can i help?*]] [[*want to talk?*]]
<tt>no,

<tt>no,
i am fine.
i am in deep.
i feel like anything i do,
...
i just need to [[begin.]].. again.<tt>no,
i am fine.
i am in deep.
i feel like anything i do,
...
i just need to [[begin.]].. again.<tt>nothing.... really....
it is just
this captivity, which i feel guilty about..
because it is not
even captivity...
even thinking of it as such
i feel a guilt
of privilege...
but then...
still
i do not feel...right.
[[*how so?*]]
