I get this feeling in the pit of my stomach,

an aching in my soul.

Like I'm drowning, but there's no water.

My lungs are full of something,

but it isn't air.

I can't breathe,

I can't catch my breath,

the words are caught in my throat.

I'm stuck.

I'm lost.

I'm drowning in this pain,

I'm choking on this feeling.

And there's no one coming to save me

from myself
