panic
i look up and i spin
i look down and spin again
with any motion at all
i feel like i am going to fall
i roll my eyes and what i find
i get dizzy when the light collides
a flash of strobes is what i see
shards of light blinding me
a disorientation in my head
rational thoughts begin to shred
floating empty within in my brain
as my sanity begins to drain
words get stuck and fall from my mouth
and actually do not make any sound
as for the ones that stick in my throat
i swallow hard and try not to choke
a fire burns hot within my chest
and i feel like i cant catch my breath
the presure builds and my lungs cant hold
they feel like they just might explode
the sweat gathers within my palms
and i cant seem to find my calm
accross my brow the tiny beads
pile up and begin to sting
i cannot feel my feet at all
afraid to stand for i might fall
a quiver quakes accross my lips
a numbing stikes my finger tips
weightless head and blury eyes
a spasm strikes within my mind
in my chest my racing heart
might just rip itself apart
i cannot focus think or see
i have lost control of me
as panic rips through my brain
i do all i can to sustain
