A Panic Attack

A Poem Written By Vivian Ennis 02/22/1997

Is fear able to be controlled?

Afraid so much that my mind feels it will explode

Panic can come on in the night, afternoon or morning

Scared to death in a second, with no warning

No time to think as my mind goes blank

Paralyzed I feel while my breathing has sank

Body pain when I panic, this experience feels so real

My skin crawls as if it is going to come right off and peel

The panic comes on so quickly

Dragging my life down making me feel so sickly

Panic rushing thought my body like lightening striking

This is so terrifying and frightening

There is no warning of when it will begin

Or when it ever will come to an end

Blaming myself, thinking I did something wrong

Because I’ve had this panic for so very long

I wish I did not have to go through this

Is there something in this life, that I must have missed

Startling panicky feelings, like I’m coming out of my skin

Wanting to be free from this panic within

Panic is so very bold

Is fear able to be controlled?

So many years ago but was so true back then. Things do change, Vitamins do help a lot and a natural lifestyle! :)
