I feel like my head is just above water
My words caught in my throat
Everytime I take a deep breath
I begin to choke
I know I'm on the verge of sinking
I can't cease
Anxiety is persistent
Thinking
My lungs are burning
As I try to keep my insides from churning
Nothing stops the panic
My limbs turn frantic
And... Everything... Stops...
