I have mentioned this before,
how practiced I am
at calming myself,
my mind,
thoughts,
so easily
put to rest
But today I had
a full on panic attack
in my body only
my thoughts serene
and safe
but
my chest
felt too small
to hold the heart
I’d already put to rest
The disconnect scared me
but my thoughts
were still
free
I decided
not to crawl
inside of myself. Instead
stood in front of everybody
and spoke my mind
until it passed
It worked,
Promise.
