Panic Attack
Write/describe a panic attack. Poetry or prose. Don't describe the events that led to the panic attack, but you can write a small introduction if you like. (I will be providing a panic attack of my own too :)
Panicked
Vision blurring,
Thoughts whirring
Sweat forms on my brow,
Slowly dripping down
Uneven, shaky breaths
As my mouth wavers,
Grasping for a bit of air
My heart pounds,
The pulsing sound
So loud in my tender ears
My mind a mess,
Words and ideas
Bouncing around my skull,
Banging against ivory bone
No, no, no,
I don't want this,
Just leave me alone,
Please,
No more
