Anxiety: A Monday Morning Haiku

Anxiety 

The cruelest noise 

In silence 

Responding to Anxiety

Cruel fears rising up
Rising up within the calm
Catching me off guard

Anxiety and Mindless Guilt

Our hearts torture us
Pronouncing us quite guilty
Anxiety’s cruel

A morning meditation

Contentment pulls
Me back to slumber
Despair’s grip
Weakens

Anxiety lurks
Waiting to
Wreck havoc

Early Morning Anxieties 

Fear….anxieties
Like to rise up
Inhibiting my rest 


My mind often wakes me with silly fears or concerns. I learned, ages ago, that the best thing I can do is wake, add them to my workflow. My brain then knows that I won’t forget.
