There are days

Where my emotions

Consume me

Like they are engorging

Themselves upon a

Seven course meal

And sometimes

They preserve me 

Like they are slowly

Methodically

Slurping down a bowl of cereal

On a lazy spring morning

Today is not a lazy spring morning

During moments of purity
I find my chest tight
The familiar feel of panic
As I wonder how long it will last
Pressure building
Like an elephant 
Placing its foot upon my center
These moment of purity
Are not always happy
But sometimes they can be
When the raw feelings build up
Yet they don't come out
Almost trapped
Inside of the vault of my body
And I forgot the passcode
They scream ...
