Asphixiating

Cannot Breathe

Lungs broken

Vision swimming

Mind melting

Choking on the nothing in my throat  

Trapped by my own tratorous trachia

Chest heaving to no avail 

Heart pounding with fight or flight

Wth nothing to combat and no where to flee

What the hell is wrong with me?

I can't relax my brain is shutting down

My cells are dying in droves and 

I'm terrified beyond rational belief

That somehow on air I'm drowning  

And will sincerely drop dead of stress

My life is fine, but my mind is a mess

It's breaking my back and driving me mad

I cannot describe how I feel, but it's bad

So please bear with me a moment

If I seem distant and unfocused
