The words boil inside me making my stomach twirl
My heart beating faster than I can count I can feel the pounding against my chest
My lungs inflate heavily almost to slow for my pace
Soon the anxiety floods over me causing me to panic
All because of one word
One stupid word
A word I know doesn't define me
Just a bunch of letters arranged to make something hurtful
I feel as if I am falling down a spiraling whole and I can't get myself out
But I have to be silent if I scream the secret will slip
And If I shed a tear it will unleash the prophecy
All because of one word
Endless thinking can't stop tearing myself apart
Because of one word
Shaming and shaming telling myself other than I should
All because of one word
Ok. I say
Ok. It doesn't make it better but it makes me feel okay
Ok. Shows I don't give a crap
But deep down you know
Ok.
Is my safe word
Ok?
