The moment you're about to cry;

Your throat swells up and constricts and your trying to swallow away the pain.

Your eyesight gets blurry and you blink blink blink away the tears.

The oxygen in the air disappears and your left flailing about.

Help me
Help me
Help me

And then you push it away.

Swallow the swollen throat.

Blink your eyes dry.

Deep breath.

Start again.

Hide it away.

Jam it to the back of your mind.

In, out.

'Yeah I'm okay.'
