Underneath
I feel it when it’s beginning sometimes slowly sometimes in a rush,
Never prepared as the walls break and then the gush.
Heart beat racing, out of breath, mind a blur.
I whisper we’re safe but my body does not concur.
Not even sure what started the fear and anxiety. But my skin is crawling and i can’t breathe.
Focus, connect with what is real. What can you see, hear, and feel?
Regulate your breathing, calm your heart, let the tremors subside hit pause then restart.
Too much sound, and Too much to take in.
One step at a time control is very thin.
My heart is still to fast but the day doesn’t stop. Like Holding a ball under water hoping it doesn’t pop.
