I can not allow this to control all my happiness, i should be expecting hurt,
the worst,
so i don't get burnt..

I should expect her not to show, I cant help but to hope

My anxiety is killing me, I'm so nervous about all of this
I'm slightly in shock, that this is really occurring,
Were really gonna meet

I don't know why I'm so nervous,
Why is my anxiety at it's peak?

I am experiencing a whole range of feelings right now..
Anxious,nervous,happy,confused,
Slightly nauseous too

I'm shaking and fidgety again
But the anxiety doesn't feel like panic,like usual..
