Just wanted to share this with you.

Wrote this some time ago when I was feeling very low. It's not great but I still wanted to share it with people who would understand.

The Unknown Fear

Here we go again with this feeling of dread,
Constantly fighting the truth in my head,
My body responding to a non-existent fear,
My body betrays me then leaves me in tears.

The temperature rises, I feel trapped in,
My ears become muffled, noise becomes dim,
The steady beat disappears from my heart,
A million moths are now filling the gap.

I make it out and gulp in air,
People around me just stand and stare,
No-one sees the pain I keep locked inside,
The shame I feel as I run and hide.

But one day I know I can be free,
This torture will not keep my life from me,
Everyday I will struggle through this cruel fight,
Searching and hoping for a small ray of light.

That's absolutely beautiful. If you don't mind, I might print it out and put it on my wall. It's just so accurate. Well done you:)
