I'm scared. Money gone, gone gone gone gone.
A rush inside me,

sudden anxiety that I've spent too much.
Or something terrible is going to happen.
But nothings happening.
I'm not touching anything.
I only sent my mum some money.
The sum dropped to a new digit.

2 hours later, i thought again of it
disappearing suddenly,

compulsively spending on things I don't need.
Out of nowhere the moneys all gone.
Gone gone gone gone gone!
Head deep in debt again.

Just about to drown once again.
Again again again again again!


But I'm still breathing, fine.
Nothings happening.

Anything could happen.
Fear is illuminating possibilities
of addiction I don't and fear to see.
