Waking up to shadows

That dance in my mind

Heart racing, fear surging

Feeling confined

Breathless panic grips me

As my vision drowns

Every heartbeat echoes

Like haunting sounds

A sudden chill

Like a ghost in my chest

Everything spinning

A world possessed

Thoughts like thunder

Running away

Trying to navigate the storm

But I'm lost in the fray

Walls closing in

It's a whirlwind inside

Heart pounding wild

Nowhere left to hide

These ripple effects

They spread through my soul

In this chaos

I'm trapped

Lost my control

Walking through crowds

But I'm all on my own

The weight

Of the world carried alone

Every noise is a siren

Every smile feels tight

The dread creeps in

Like a thief in the night

Conversations falter

I'm holding my breath

Afraid of the whispers

That might spell my death

What if I crumble?

What if I break?

This fear keeps me trapped

Keeps me awake

Walls closing in

It's a whirlwind inside

Heart pounding wild

Nowhere left to hide

These ripple effects

They spread through my soul

In this chaos

I'm trapped

Lost my control

The burden is real

Like a weight on my chest

Each breath feels like struggle

Longing for rest

Searching for light

In this shadowy space

Though the storm rages on

I'll still find my place

Walls closing in

It's a whirlwind inside

Heart pounding wild

Nowhere left to hide

These ripple effects

They spread through my soul

In this chaos

I'm trapped

Lost my control

So here's to the battles

The fears that I wield

The power of pain

Can teach me to heal

Every ripple will fade

As I learn to reflect

Finding peace in the chaos

My heart will connect
