The walls are closing in
The lights seem to dim
At my throat, panic grips
At my clothes, panic rips
Faces merge and blur
Voices fade and slur
Breathing becomes shallow, quicker with each breath
Drowning in despair, beginning to welcome death
Slowly, the lights come back as the walls recede
Despair replaced with heavy relief
Faces stare back, eyes wide with fear
Voices ring out, steady and clear
It's over
