feels like my necks in a noose
and time ticks on the line
feeling dazed and confused
as chills creep up my spine
choking on the fear
every muscle is tight
my future is unclear
from what is waiting outside
a chokehold captures my words
and my voice box is the vice
footsteps closing in, I’m concerned
that I won’t get out alive
sweat drops flow, though I’m chilled
my teeth are threatening to rattle
my sense of wellbeing killed
by this unending battle
that rages within
causing me to cry out
my sanity wearing thin
but no sound escapes my mouth
will it all go away
if I refuse to acknowledge
can I survive one more day
from this formidable carnage
