Once Upon a Panic

Once upon a midnight clear
all alone with thought up fear,
I was having a panic attack,
pacing the floor, watching my back.

I felt shaky, the urge to run
a panic attack, it is not fun,
I hyperventilated and felt tense
the thoughts in my head didn't make sense.

I paced and cried, paced and cried
then in the closet I went to hide,
not wanting to be seen in my current state
the embarrassment of a panic attack I really hate.

I layed out a blanket on the closet floor
then sat down and shut the door,
breathing in a paper bag, alone in the dark
another panic attack has left its mark.
