Flare Up

I’m shaking.

I can’t seem to stop it.

Why am I shaking?

Honestly, I have no idea.


Nobody seems to notice,

Nobody seems to care.


They ask me why I’m so nervous and cautious,

So I tell them that I’m just a nervous person, because


They tell me I’m fine.

That it’s all in my head,

And I have nothing to worry about.


I laugh a little when they say that.

Of course it’s in my head.

Where else would a mental illness come from?

My arm?
