Panic!

By Krish Muniappan VI

We all know that scary feeling.
When our hearts speed up,
And our minds begin to 
Spiral. When a million 
Thoughts are running 
Through our heads 
Like scurrying ants.
When our faces 
Quickly heat up 
And adrenaline 
Is pumping. 
When our 
Breaths
Become
 Short

It’s nothing new but 
it’s definitely very old.
A reaction, or instinct
that has always been
there at our sides.
