Heart Attack

Heart Attack

A Poem by Geralyn Miller

The heart's

dis

ease

Rages.

Anxiety,

sadly,

raises

pounding

agony.

Blood rushes,

swiftly.

hard,

hard,

hard

throbbing

heart

--the head,

--the tension.

hurt,

hurt,

grab the arm;

hurt.

pounding,

pounding,

can't breathe,

hurt.

 

Oh, God!

ponding,

throbbing,

 beating,

help

me!

hurt,

pain,

help me!

can't breathe.

Throb,

hurt,

falling,

pounding,

hurt,

hurt,

building,

throbbing,

pain . . .

 

blackness.
