Panic Attack

Terrorized by kindness an emotion appears. Red in the face
of shamed embarrassment. Only the light of encouragement and
hope can wash away the fear of failure. But the car crashes
again. Remorse fills the air. Air! Air!! Give me air!
Outside the cool air inflates my lungs with joy. Awareness
of my surroundings becomes acute. Back down the hall of doom
to the detention canter where freedom of speech is revoked.
Tick, Tick, Tick… any other noise would humor me! But that
would be too much to ask for. Tick, Tick, Tick… and the beat
goes on. Freedom at last! My eyes burn with the truth of
what I once thought to be truth.
