One word is all I need, one word will change the very way I am breathing.
Time is at a standstill, memories, thoughts and terrifying but innocent words fly by me while I’m frozen in this trapped and horrified moment.
I stand there watching myself shake,
Cry, get lost in an unknown universe.
I can’t move.
I can’t bear to look, but I can’t keep myself from not.
My soul ages a hundred years a minute.
I’ve gone numb and cold in a way, but I’m reminded I’m alive by uncontrollable shaking and the slight warmth of tears scaring my face.
The beat of my heart drums away
to the tick if a clock.
I’m just waiting alone in an uncomfortable world waiting for that one
word, the one word I need to calm my breathing…
