Mental Breakdown

an interesting description of my mental breakdowns

Dark angels claw at my shrinking throat

Racking my body with

Bone shattering

Shudders.

Rivers stain my eyes

Scarlett from my bleeding brain.

Screams of terror

Escape me

As I try to grasp

A sense of reality

Only to slip and stumble,

Hurtle downward

into my own personal hell .

My breathing is shallow down here.

My heart pounds on my ribcage,

Threatening to crack it open.

It is here that my emotions

Run rampant

Setting fire to my soul.

My screeches pierce the night

As my head fills up with helium,

Threatening to tear away

From my body.

My eyes bulge

From their shrinking sockets.

Fingers find hair,

Squeeze,

Pull tight.

Red visions

Flood my sight

As waves of needles

Pulsate through my skull.

Fibers taut.

Teeth clenched.

I beg for an escape.

Pen biting paper,

I release my pain.
