Worries

In the caverns of anxious thoughts,

lies a bottomless abyss of worries,

waiting for the unsuspecting victims,

to lure them inside by tricking.

A pit that brings endless nights,

where concerns would take flight,

every voice of mind then whispers, 

regrets of pasts, fear of the future. 

There are uncertainties, with no escape,

from the shadows of heart's darkness,

even in the times of joyful occasions, 

it raises its head, spewing poison.

A part of our perseverative cognition, 

it does prompt us to take precautions,

but might magnify normal situations,

forcing us to avoid taking endeavors. 

Worries...

Sometimes, it's difficult to control,

letting us become an anxious person,

with symptoms of restlessness and fatigue,

would cause insomnia, losing concentration. 

And we fall into the negative spirals,

difficult to find footings on the ground,

unwilling to seek the hope's radiance,

any help, or support from close ones. 

So, be aware of the potential triggers,

keep tab on your worrisome thoughts, 

observe, and take preventive measures,

like distractions, relaxing or exercise. 

Letting go, the burden of your expectations, 

embrace the present, live free of tensions, 

ignite courage within, be bold and bright, 

creating an endless dawn, your guiding light.
