Meltdown


 

 

Here we go again

My nerves shatter

Does it really matter

Everything's a blur

It's too bright

My eyes and brain aching

My stomach turns

Sounds you can't hear

Driving me batty

Somebody make it stop

Closing my eyes i put my head in my heads

Hearing my own voice scream shut up

Breathing deeply with tears welling in my eyes

I can't escape this overwhelming reality

My whole body burning

Hot tears streaming down my face

Hoping nobody touches me

unable to speak

As i slowly unwind

Returning to reality

Everything's coming into focus

 Hearing people around me laughing

Slowly melting into my seat

Wishing that they had not seen

I broke down

Once again
