This is my very first poem so I'm not sure if it's any good. It's about one of the nightmares I used to have a year ago. They used to scare me to death.
"Panic", says my mind.
"Stay calm", I whisper back.
Even though I know the signs,
I'm still numb from previous attacks.
I remember the last time,
When panic rose inside me.
I'd told myself, "I'm going to be fine",
But I just wanted to flee.
Instantly then, the roof disappeared,
Revealing to me the daunting night sky.
Everything happened, precisely as I'd feared.
The clouds roared and began to terrify.
I lay gasping on my bed,
Shifting myself to get up and run
When a pair of hands grasped my head,
And left me more or less frozen.
I was screaming and shouting,
But no one came to my aid.
My throat went sour,
And everything began to fade.
I woke up, completely out of breath.
Trying to calm my mind was useless.
I didn't dream at all for several nights.
Still, I feel like this will happen again.
-I would really appreciate reviews-
