Poem: Paranoia Illusion

In, out, in out
Out out, in
out, in in.
Breathe
Eyes – rip
Tear at me and leave me bare.
Holding in a
Whimper. My body attempts to
Mould itself.
Into the crowd into the walls into the glass into the earth go away…go away…
One aim, turn the
Entire
World against me
Unable to grasp the air the lungs
Beg for salvation, for air, to be away from the
Eyes
Not shuffle , not strut, not stroll
Feet hit the
Ground
Instinct driving
Mind panicking
Lungs suffocating
A shadow flickers, flourishing a knife, always finds me never satisfied, forever making my heart jump fear courses through my vein. Founder of my fear Lord of Flight Lord of demons. Mine. A shadow flickers, threatening to murder my soul
Eyes eyes eyes…
Smug?
As if on a beach, summer, with no
Chance
Of a high tide. You know this.
But you
Wait
For the tide to come and sweep you away
