And The Balloon Bursts

That feeling, it's back

You know which one

Your chest...in a cold vice so tight

Your eyes...gritty with salt and congealed mascara

You breathe...slowly with mouth open

Hoping no one will hear the tiny gasps

You struggle for air...for control

Too many who can see you

Why waste your secret

Suck it in...Push it out

Like a big rubber balloon

Collapsing and expanding on itself

Just little bursts of breath

Escape...
