Self Torture
paranoia
whispers
softly within
like a
seducing
lover
it feeds
the
fear
that
easily turns
to panic
i inhale
my
surroundings
exhaling
the chaos
in my mind
i hear
the sound
of a cocked pistol
and wait
for the final click
but the
self torture
remains
it's russian
roulette
without bullets

I am sorry you have that unwanted companion. Hopefully she visits few and far between.

Damn good writing
the structure has the same staccato feeling you’re describing with the writing.
The tension you paint about Russia roulette is palpable, waiting flinching against the click, the relief before the chamber spins again, cruelly repetitive
