Panic Attack
My heart races
Tears form
Breathing struggles
This happens often
She yells then leaves
Someone says 'shut up'
I try to stay calm
But I feel like I'm suffocating
The panic rises
I want to cry
To hid away
To bad my asthma has kicked in
There is only one thing to do
Lose the door
Take deep breaths
And pray I don't pass out
Everyone is asleep
But my throat closes up
I feel claustrophobic
In my empty room
Darkness arrives finally
There are no dreams
Only nightmares
Panic attacks me even when I fall asleep
