Conceal, Just Feel

Anxious thoughts,
are second to none,
Making you alert,
yet painfully numb.

Panic in waves,
a storm of emotion,
From one fleeting thought
or one stupid notion,

That doesn't exist,
in your reality.
Yet it doesn't mean
it's not real,

To you I know,
you believe,
The danger is real,
the threat is apparent.

Why can no one understand,
I'm stuck in this torrent,
Of tempestuous fear
and tumultuous angst.

Yet my face is misleading,
a complete blank canvas,
Devoid of the emotion,
tearing me apart inside.

Why do we choose
to conceal,
choose to constantly hide
It all?

Why do we choose to conceal, choose to constantly hide It all?
