My throat closed
My heartbeat accelerated
I see images in my head
I'm going through hell
The fear numbs me
It caught me unawares
I'm there again
And it scares the hell out of me
Forgotten things
Better left in the past
Came back to the fore
To haunt my mind
A fear got hold of me
I feel as if I'm dying
Who can understand
The tears of distress I'm crying
You may think that I am weak
You may even avoid me
But you don't know the fight
I have deep inside of me
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder
And anxiety attacks from time to time
Is my personal hell
It's the Dark Battle of mine
