down dark tunnels of fear
getting smaller the farther I sink
until I'm pressed in at all sides
Shaking and shivering as panic sets in
"God please don't let this be happening again!"
silent screams racing through my mind
trying desperately to break free
Knowing how to escape doesn't mean I will
focus breathe move
focus fight distract
reach there you go
fight the fear
crawl don't stop!
Breathing in hard won freedom
looking over my shoulder
Sensing the faceless grin
biding its time waiting for me to slip
to pull me back down to that black hell
knowing one day it will win
You have a wonderful way with words.
