Meltdown

An emotional overflow 
fire prickling beneath tender skin,
So raw your bound to explode
impossible to take air in;

Blurry eyes seeing double
chills go down your spine,
You're not even safe in your bubble
can't pretend everything is fine;

Hard to believe what's happening 
 slowly starting to drown,
Overwhelmed with everything
Imminent Meltdown.
