panic lowercase intended]

my body trembles as thoughts

race thoughout my head.

suddenly my mind freezes,

empty, like a child's soul left alone

on a windy night. my vision

suddenly begins to fade

tears start to fall down my face

as if they held bricks

and gravity was inevitable.

my veins pull and tug

on my soft and innocent heart.

i can feel my lungs grasping 

for air through my throat and

out of my mouth.

the music blasts throughout my room

as i unconsciously swayed my trembling body 

from side to side. i tried to keep

my composure but it's no use.

my thoughts scream throughout my head.

my mouth stayed silent as they tried to escape

but deep down i want to be heard.
