September 23rd – Agita

Agita – n: a feeling of agitation or anxiety

The agita begins in the toes of my left foot and spreads through my body until it fills every cell. It sweep through my intestines. It settles in my stomach like a rock. My heart pounds in my ears and my head swims with it. I am ball of anxiety in human form, but I keep the smile on my face and refuse to let it overtake me.
