Fear-tinted glasses

Endless
useless debating

of voices in my head

Obsessive
insecure fretting

seeping into every interpretation I have of your words

Balancing
partitioning and polarizations
of voices

I am so tired of this

Dear ancient anxiety
Dear continually reinforced fears

Let me be!
Give me space!

so I can know this man without your influence
so I can live my life without falling into your vicious cycles

Ah the head vs the heart . . . how rarely do they say the same thing. "Ancient anxiety" indeed. Nicely done.
