Red

Violent screams,
tears dripping from 
your eyes,
emotions claw your
insides,
biting your brain,
consuming the heart,
you want to die,
blood pumping,
pulsing,
you can't breathe,
curling into a fetal 
position you count to 10,
try to distract your
thoughts,
breathe,
exhale,
inhale,
breathe,
taking nothing to heart,
you can't help but
want to shoot yourself,
want to stop breathing,
everything goes by 
so fast,
to fast,
pain can't stop,
can't wait,
can't pause,
always,
always,
breathe....
