Panic attack

A moment of dread
The world crushing inside my head
The mind throbbing 
All thoughts locking 
Eyes gone blurred
Speech slurred
Head spinning 
Lights dimming
Sweat falling
Feel yourself dropping
Grab anything to steady 
Palms sweaty
Heartbeat sky rockets
Tummy vomits 
Hard to catch each breath
Hoping next is death
