I feel the catch; like dried grass caught in my throat. I know what is to come, yet I fill with panic. hurry...hurry...hurry I search for a haven; a small alcove, a bathroom stall. Somewhere I can allow my body to tear its self apart. hurry...hurry...hurry People our of no aid, it only grows worse with company. hurry...hurry...hurry Shorter breaths. Quicker steps. in, out in, out The noose grows tighter around my slender neck. There is no use. It is inevitable and I am helpless.
I have a medical history of hyperventilating and decided to express the terror that fills my mind and soul when it happens.
