panic

what does it feel like when you have a panic attack? it feels like i'm running it feels like i'm running downhill and i just can't stop myself and i feel my knees lock up and i feel my legs go weak but i just can't stop i'm like a car that has been put in neutral no i'm like a car whose brakes have been cut because i have no choice to stop and and and i start apologizing i'm sorry i say i'm sorry but it's not working i'm not stopping and so i start getting angry don't fucking go to sleep don't fucking leave me can't you see that i need you? why would you fucking leave me when i need you? why don't you love me? why don't you fucking love me? and with every word my pace gets faster i pick up speed and the hill gets taller and steeper until it is a ninety degree angle and i'm falling i'm falling to my destruction why don't you fucking love me? i keep repeating why don't you fucking love me? until i hit the ground with a boom so big that it could destroy an entire city and i breathe and i look around at the destruction and i keep breathing why am i like this? i ask myself what's wrong with me?
