Panic

Yearning for Peace in the Midst of Chaos

Struggling to breathe,

The air squeezed from my lungs,

My chest tightens with each attempt.

I can't focus,

I can't function,

I can't leave my house.

A daily struggle,

When will it end?

It feels like it won’t.

Endless pain and panic,

No escape in sight,

Overcoming it isn't as easy as it seems.

Escaping my mind is hardest of all,

I can’t seem to grasp it,

I hope one day it finds peace.

A hug is all I crave,

In moments of panic,

The only thing that might help.

Tears roll down my face,

My mind races with fear,

My chest squeezes the life from me.

I long for just one thing,

So simple, yet out of reach,

I wish you were near.
