An Attack

The fear sets in,
The walls are closing in again.
No one knows what to do,
And I'm too afraid to tell them what I need to.

It's one of many,
An attack at the beginning.
I don't have them that often,
But when I do they just get harder.

The fear sets in,
And I try not to black out again.
Deep breaths in and out,
I try not to listen to the voices that shout.

They say awful things,
About how I'll die today.
The walls will close in tight,
And I'll never leave tonight.

I hear his voice at last,
And it helps me move from this path.
I now know I won't die tonight,
As he guides me away from the light.
