little glass box (poem)

[DietofWorms]

I wrote this shortly after having a bad panic attack at my church. It was completely internal. I held it all in, not wanting to show that I'm "crazy"
this is how I felt.

little glass box

my comforting cage

soundless and earsplitting

can't move

can't breathe

long to scream

long to bleed

long to break out

afraid to be free

afraid to leave the familiarity

afraid of what's next

my constricting prison

little glass box

Nice poem, DietofWorms.
I can really relate to the idea behind this poem. Wanting to escape but not being able to.

Likewise, a very touching poem.

It's so accurate in everyway, I used to have such attacks during school assemblies... *sigh* again, nice poem :|.
