Metaphors

Anxiety snakes her cold way into my soul, coiling in disgust inside my stomach.

Happiness radiates its warm light all over my body, splashing love all around.

Fear explodes its sharp venom into my bloodstream, paralysing me in its encompassing grip.

Safety feels like a cloud blanket over me on a sunny afternoon, spreading her flowing grace through a still embrace.

I feel deeply, and I am grateful
For the moments of bliss
I am able to experience.
