Open Spaces

When going out it frightens me, I can feel the tension as it builds Like clash of the titans, the anxiety, It now feels like it's war of the worlds My mouth becomes dry, my lips, I lick This feeling like I'm going to collapse I'll health, a situation where I feel sick Again this now feels like it's a relapse And when your always stuck in that cue And all you then want is to get from a - b It always feels like a rush to get through That’s when I started to feel so panicky I can't breathe ,that feeling a loss of air That’s how it did feel when I was outside Just wanting to leave get on out of there But trying to find my self a place to hide It got even worse, my eye sight went blurry That’s when everything started to turn black Should I then see the nurse it was so scary I thought here again it's another panic attack When ever I'm in these large open spaces That is something that get's me so annoyed When looking at you all these different faces That is what always makes me so paranoid. Parts of this were taken from an old poem idea I rewrote and scaped so many times called misshaps felt this better as descibes tha event but how I do get at times even now but again like others up dating put into better context OPEN SPACES WRITTEN BY MY SELF DAVIDSCOTT FEB MARCH 2013 ,,,,,,,,,,inspierd by past present situations and friends family at those times PLEASE SOMEONE TELL ME IF THIS TO LONG I FEEL IS BUT ALSO WANTED TO GIVE A LITTLE INSIGHT TO TME AND SPACE ETC WITHOUT REPEATING MY SELF???
