Anxiety

Heart thumping
Blood pumping
Mind racing
Vision blurring
Chest constricting

I can't think,
I can't see,
I can't breathe

How do I make it stop?
This feeling of helplessness,
This feeling of despair.
How do I make it stop?
These thoughts running through my mind,
These tears falling from my eyes.

When will the fear end?
When will the pain end?

I refuse to live like this.
I refuse to give in,
I will fight.

If I lose,
At least I swung.
