Panic Attack
Write/describe a panic attack. Poetry or prose. Don't describe the events that led to the panic attack, but you can write a small introduction if you like. (I will be providing a panic attack of my own too :)
Sorrow moat
Rise of bile in the scratchy throat
Rough waters flood my sorrow moat
Fevered sweat swirling in thick air
No one around to answer my prayer
Terror gushing over the despair dam
My shaking spine can’t escape this jam
Limbs flailing, so frail and feckless
How did I fall so fast, so helpless?
Worse struck by fear that today will repeat
Tomorrow's another sinister day of defeat
