It feels like floating
but not the nice kind, the one that makes you feel free.
the kind where you don't want to float
it just happened
the world is disappearing from under your feet
you're trying to grab at your rope
then a tree
but everything is getting away from you too fast
and things are turning white as they fade
and the air up here is thin
and my lungs can't seem to hold it
I'm hyperventilating.
my head is in the clouds, but its not a dream.

- Comment from author about the poem: wanted it to look like i was describing a panic attack and then slowly switch the verbs over to, its me, its my panic attack. Because sometimes thats how it is.

Seen people have these before. Not a pretty sight. Best regards.
Ohhh I know all to well what these devils are like... It's great your able to express it in this form... For me, they were like buried emotions burning to get out... I really felt that falling feeling through your poem.
They're not pleasant - the panic attacks I mean, not your poems!
But OK - I shall not threaten to sing, if it brings on your panic attacks! heehee.
I mean - me singing is enough to make anyone panic. It's the threat of it you see, when I say 'An now a song...'! That's all folk got to worry about - on here, anyway! lol.
