What causes panic is waking up to a cold knife held to your throat, being held there with three single words with no defined meaning except to you because you can't leave him in the nightmares.

What causes panic is feeling the sick way he showed his love branded into every scar on your body, for anyone to read the story.

What causes panic is feeling him hold your hand through crowds, watching him pull out his eyeballs have them rolling behind you like some sick parade just to protect you from those others.

What causes panic is knowing that he will always have a way in because he broke all the locks and pushed access denied access denied access denied to anyone else that tried.

Because, *******, he says "I love you."

And you can't love others.
