What Can I Do? (In the Midst of a Panic Attack)
Location
I cannot breathe
yet no one can hear me.
I feel like I'm screaming
for the fear is choking me.
A tsunami breaks over
I cannot stop shaking.
I don't have the control
what can I do?
My body has abandoned me and my mind is no use.
My fingers are sleeping
and I wish I could too.
What can I do?
My jaw wont unclench
I'm locked inside
My lungs have imploded
starving me dry.
I'm starving for help
but you don't know why.
My heart is fighting it's way out
my breath is fighting too.
Why does this happen
I feel there is nothing I can do.
What can I do?
I'm terrified of myself
can't you see?
I need you to hold me together
please answer my plea.
I'm begging for mercy
I'm begging for peace.
My body controls me
as you can see.
What can I do?
