Drowning.
My chest tightens,
my eyes water.
I can't breathe.
Fighting a tide of emotion,
the swell brings me to
my knees,
My mind screaming at me.
And silently,
I drown in a sea of
My own fears.

It is a shadow that haunts me.
It lurks near,
whisper doubts,
insecurities, imperfections into
my ears.
It wraps it claws around my chest and
grips,
tightens
Until I can barely breathe.
Until I fall to my knees,
Innocent phrases turned
sinister, venomous,
"I'm Busy."Sounds
Like the fall of the
gabble.
And the shadows hiss,
"You are an annoyance."
