Worry resides in my bones,<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

peace of mind to paranoia, <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Haunting, screaming, <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
echoing, sending cries of stress <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
when I’m under duress.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Paranoia blurs my vision<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
