You Make Me Feel Unsafe

You Make Me Feel Unsafe


The feelings are

Almost instantaneous

A boa constrictor

Inside the throat 

Squeezing

Slithering 

Choking

Tightening of the chest

Breath shallow 

Wispy


Heart lurches forward 

Heat spreading through 

The body 


Terror that must be muffled

Lightheaded

Trying to float above

And not feel these feelings.

You Make Me Feel Unsafe.
