Hits like a brick
And shatters everything, every aspect of this moment in pieces on the ground
The pain rises from the gut, boiling over into my lungs til I can't breathe, move or sit still
Paralyized, fixated on what I shouldn't dwell
But I can't panic
Sometimes I wish I could
I internalize, and I recognize that I'm heading for a break
But I'm so far removed, what am I breaking from?
Looking for an exit, finding there's no room
