Panic sinks its teeth
into my laboured lungs,
my shortened breaths
signalling their imminent collapse.
Breathe in, breathe out
I've been through this before.
It's going to be alright,
it's just a panic attack.
Walking down the crowded street
among the lucky extroverted souls,
who can blind themselves
with the cacophony created by a cold city's chaos.
Keep my eyes trained on the ground,
but keep a vigilant eye on the sidewalk behind,
To be sure fear, won't ever catch up to me.
