Static

By lshidonil

A cloud of static,
Consumes my mind.
 
My heart races at the slightest thing,
And if you cut me,
Anxiety is what I would bleed.
 
I want out!
My mind screams.
 
My hand shakes,
As I reach for the door.
I’m hopeful I’ve found a way out.
 
Behind it is another door.
 
I’ve forgotten which doors I’ve already peaked inside,
For each room looks the same.
Hell is a maze.

    I believe you've captured the frantic feelings of anxiety rather well. The imagery kept me on task reading it. Just a small grammatical critique, it should read "peeked inside" not peaked. Overall, a well written poem.
