"panicpanicpanic" poems
I've got a constant tension in my clenched jaw
Muscles bulging beneath skin that I have rubbed raw
I know you've seen my nervous ticks and haven't run far
But the way I'm swayed by my emotions follows no strict law
To get an effect you need a cause
Unfortunately I rarely recognize it until after I've felt the loss
of the situation
Wish life had a transport so I could hit pause
rewind and playback
My mother's in the basement
Crying over the implications
"Why would you say that?"
Never can tell when it will begin
Feel the blood rush
Anxiety kicking in
Before I know it

Before I know it
Spit **** split skin
I'm laying on pavement
My heartbeat increasing
My pupils dilated
And I hear your voice
Telling me I can take it
But it sounds so far
And I feel like I'm fading
In and out of consciousness
My numb fingers lock and twitch
Can we go to the hospital
Now and not later
If I close my eyes now
I may meet my maker
If I had the choice
I would be my own savior
But I'm too busy right now
Feeling too dizzy right now
Maybe when things slow down
I'll tell you what I'm thinking
Though I'd rather pretend
This had all been a dream
And soon I'll wake up

-wake up-
I can't stop licking this brand new /
/ crack in my tooth
What am I to do
when the tension begins to break me
and it shows?
