Panic

Fight or Flight

Just breathe...
     Don't think
Just breath...
     Don't scream
Just breathe...
     Don't cry
Just breathe...
     Don't react
Just breath...
     Don't look

Just. Don't.

Perfectly stated! We all need to learn to just breath....we take upon ourselves to much stress & worries about life.....if we take your advice as through your creation here then all we need to do is just breath!

I really enjoyed this piece, short but so impacting & to the deep truth!

I like this. It's too the point and it's clear. I like the conciseness and the repetition. It flowed naturally. I understand that feeling of panic and not knowing if restraint is possible.

Hiding is such HELL... after a bit it goes on auto
a thousand little deaths, then a thousand more.

I've been caught in the icy grip of panic many,many times. The only way to survive it is to just breathe. Terrific poem!

I like the words. The truth is. These are the words needed to bring peace and calm in a dangerous situation. A entertaining poem. Thank you for a excellent poem.
