Panic Manic

Eyes wide, all encompassing

lips part, harsh gasps in

pulse retaliates, enraged

lungs mutilated, suffocated

           

Heart laughs, maniacal mad

Thumping ruthless, straining the cage

mad rhythm,

cunning control

Mind dazed, images fleeting

narrowed on pain, clearly!

 

Regret prowling, fear flowing

fingers numb, sides clasping

digging into the back

Survival comfort

 

sobs wrecking, worsen with time

sockets soaked, ducts deluded

cuddling, convulsing

heart kick-starts

tiny ball of life

wishing another last chance

 

Whimpering,

Whispering

 

'No, no, NO, not AGAIN!

 

Praying,

Pleading

 

'Please end...'

 

 

 

Volatile entity

Weakened, worn-out

Crawling within

Leeches on nothingness

Waking the incomplete..

This one gave me goose bumps. Reminds me of one on a bad acid trip lol. This is eery and thrilling. Love it! Nice write.

[Sindu]

Acid trip .. lol.. Wait! Is there a good acid trip? :P

A lot mix feelings are there, got me feeling of paranoid junkie high on heroin!
I loved it...

[Sindu]

Haha.. Thanks! Paranoid, junkie and heroin - that's a dangerous combination :P

[Mayank]

Just inject the heroin and the rest will flow

[Sindu]

Yup mind will flow but it will only give jumble of alphabet

[MomzillaNC]

A visceral free association of panic. The form contributes the sense of free associative floating… of being adrift, consumed by panic.

[Sindu]

Thank you so much Momzi! Glad you can see what I wanted to convey :)

[MomzillaNC]

You're welcome.

[Surya pradha]

[Pushkar Prabhat]

i like control..............i can't let loose.................but, control is an illusion!
things that can happen, will happen: Murphy's law.
so nothing can help you, panic can make it worst.
brilliant description.......!!!!
i loved it!!!

[Sindu]

Thanks a lot Pushkar! Interesting views you see.. but yep, when control is lost and panic takes over.. it's scary

[Pushkar Prabhat]

[Avinash]

entangled and confusing like thoughts in mind. Brilliant work Sindu.

[Sindu]

Thanks a bunch Avinash! :)

[DACAC]

I absolutely love this. I love the outline of this piece, and how the title of the poem falls in line with the outline, (which was probably your intention) cause when you're panicked, your mind is all over the place, and that is excellently portrayed in this poem.

[Sindu]

Thank you so much DACAC! Didn't make sense to complicate the title any further. Very Glad to know loved this. Thanks again for amazing review. :)

[hardeep sabharwal]

I like the structure of this piece, and your words are apt for your expression, well done :)

[Sindu]

Happy you liked it Hardeep :) Thank you.
