Hello readers, welcome to OCpoetry. This subreddit is a writing workshop community -- a place where poets of all skill levels can share, enjoy, and talk about each other's poetry. Every person who's shared, including the OP above, has given some feedback (those are the links in the post) and hopes to receive some in return (from you, the readers).

If you really enjoyed this poem and just want to drop a quick comment, to show some appreciation or give kudos, things like "great job!" or "made me cry", or "loved it" or "so relateable", please do. Everyone loves a compliment. Thanks for taking the time to read and enjoy.

If you want to share your own poem, you'll need to give this writer some detailed feedback. Good feedback explains from your point of view what it was like to read the poem, and then tries to explain how the poem made you feel like that. If you're not sure what that means, check out our [feedback guide](https://new.reddit.com/r/ocpoetry/wiki/feedbackcritiques), or look 

This definitely has an anxious tone. It feels very dark how anxiety is initially personified, but almost kind of disappears in a way once he "finds" you and the anxious thoughts are just happening.

Hide and Seek

As I hide, you seek  
I whisper “He will never find me”  
He counts to ten: “One, two, three…”  
I hold my mouth and dare not to speak  
The silence, my friend  
My breath is still  
Soon my thoughts begin to run against my will  
Is this what you intend?  
For this game of hide and seek to never end?
