There I lay,
Quiet in the night,
Covering my mouth,
Stopping any sound that may come out.
Tears roll down,
Breathing is broken,
My body shakes,
My mind is gone.
Headphones plugged in,
Trying to regain control,
Over my mind that has flown.
Words repeated again and again,
Making sense of the feeling within.
One thing on my mind.
Just keep breathing and breathing and breathing and breathing. Just keep breathing.
I close my eyes and calm my mind.
Easier said than done.
I feel sick,
I feel weak,
I feel stupid
And defeat.
An attack of the mind once again takes control.
Flashbacks and memories declare war on the soul.
