gasping for air
feeling sick
wanting to die
wanting to sleep but stay awake at the same time
wishing for it stop
because when it does
you get the greatest feeling of relief for a split second
before anxiety consumes you again
at the thought of ever having to go through that again
but you know you will
you know it's not the end
this pain and these fears will follow you to your grave

gasping for air
feeling sick
wanting to die
wanting to sleep but stay awake at the same time
wishing for it stop
because when it does
you get the greatest feeling of relief for a split second
before anxiety consumes you again
at the thought of ever having to go through that again
but you know you will
you know it's not the end
this pain and these fears will follow you to your grave
