Anxiety Dreams



If you are low in self-esteem
You sometimes see within your dreams
You're lost and no one cares.

You also sometimes dream about
The loneliness caused by self-doubt,
Where no one truly shares.

In dreams like that a darkness fills
Your view where every day has chills
And no one wants to hear

About your troubles or that you
Will wander through your dreams and do
Your best to fight each fear.
