Are you alright?

I can feel my heart beat at the back of my neck
And I wonder how you are
There's no response
Not a pulse

Yet my mind deceives me to think this thought
While you sleep comfortably
Miles away
Sweetly

Such panic swells my heart and mind and lungs
It gets hard to breathe and
I can't manage without
Exactly knowing

If you're okay
Or not
