Panic Attack

I looked upon the judges eyes in blur of tears

words fumble out from the tip of my acidic tongue

How

chains some how strapped my hands in place

I glare in disbelief, I can feel the blood underneath my finger nails

What

the smell of bleached dried into the wrinkles of my skin

standing still in purgatory waiting for who that sits before me

Who

I can still smell her lavender perfume smeared across my clothes

smile melted into horror

When

5 minutes to hear the voice flood the rooms with her screams

4 o'clock and the father clocked rung

Guilty By the bang of the gavel..
