Anxiety

Open your mouth
He is afraid to speak
The thought of his voice being rejected
Causes his mind to feel uneased
His heart never failed to skip a beat
As it influences his shaking hands and his trembling feet

Silence filled the room and they all sit and stare
Small whispers were heard
And he was very much aware
O' the cruel things that were said
Or so he believed
The mind is a powerful thing but it can also be deceived
