ANXIETY, a much too common ailment
This is an acrostic poem revealing symptoms of ANXIETY, a much too common ailment.
Rated:
E

Avg Rating: (11)
A creeping shortness of breath
Nearly overtaking, breaking, yet
X-rays show no physical malady.
I request an EKG--revealing a healthy heart, though
Each episode-bearing crisis leaves
Temperance all but lost, while heart and mind
Yearn for normalcy.
