NERVES

NERVES

Heart rate elevated, nervous as hell
Stomach is feeling like an empty well
I must stay calm and overcome this fear
I must remain calm now that I am here
As people approach me looking for help
I can't be my usual introverted self
It's time for me to step out of my comfort zone
Smiling but I wish I was still sleeping at home
I have to tell myself that I can prevail
Even though I'm nervous and my skin feels pale
I really need something to calm my nerves
I'm trying to keep calm but I'm just so disturbed
Doing breathing exercises to try to relax
I'm already here so there's no turning back.
