How Much Are You Worth?

Future dread suddenly
Now

Nauseous, shaking
Heart puddled on the floor
Throat lumped
Breath halted, erratic

Limp limbs
Decomposing,

Drifting away

Taken by the fear

What would
Light
reveal of this dark place?

Thoughts faster than I can read
But I know what they’re saying:

You aren’t good enough.
You are going to embarrass yourself.
