I can't breathe.
I'm trying to force air into my lungs,
but I can't.
I am suffocating while surrounded by oxygen.

My vision narrows
to a never ending tunnel;
blurred at the edge
sharp and clear in the center.

My heartbeat skyrockets
and my short breaths can't keep up
my mind explodes with thoughts.

Must
get
out.
But I can't.

I am unable to utter a sound,
My feet are lead.
I can only wait
until feeling fades,
until my heart cannot pump blood,

Until I am numb
