“You don't really know me”

A flash of pain surges through my heart and overcomes my body.
My mind a mess of thoughts, questions, and fears.
There’s ringing in my ears
My breath’s caught up in my throat
The ocean floods my eyes
My chest tightens and a dagger shoots through my ribcage
My stomach transforms into a deep pit of never ending pain
My knees buckle together
My legs shake violently threatening to collapse at any moment
The world begins to crumble around me
My heart is the epicenter where the words did the most damage.
