What Words Speak to You

never ending

my hands shake as if there is an earthquake

my stomach churns like a whirlpool

my head fills with thoughts

about every possible thing that could go wrong

my eyes start to water

and then it goes blank

like a wave of emptiness

has taken over my body

and the earthquake suddenly stops

the tears stop falling

and my stomach is now like still waters

it's over

until tomorrow
