Disorientation

A massive weight upon my chest

Heart rate increasing

Struggling just to take a breath

Hands shaking, fingers numb

Faint feeling, I succumb

Darkness is creeping in

Needles beneath my skin

I’m grasping for a hold

Of anything, truth be told

Can’t stand up on my own

Inferno in my bones

Thoughts spinning in my mind

World spinning in my head

I say that I’ll be fine

I worry that I’m dead

Stagger to the wall

Propped up in defeat

My body starts to fall

The ground, it will meet

Panic
