Subtle Death

Scared for my life
barely able to breathe
gasping for a single breath
My mouth closes with nothing inside
My eyelids tightly embrace
My breathing becomes shorter
My muscles freeze-- all, but one--
My heart beats faster
faster and faster than ever
it jumps up and down within my chest
I can't tame it-- it's untameable
I can't stop it-- it's unstoppable
All this from a single conversation of your eyes and mine.
