Panic Attack - New challenge of poetry: in the shoes of a woman who suffers 💔✏

in #poetry5 years ago (edited)

Thoughts running inside her head,
So many things that’s left unsaid.
She is a nice girl, everyone knows that,
It is just a matter of fact.
While the taunting and constant harassment occurred,
She decided to be strong since she wasn't being heard.

Be grateful and polite, she was always told,
Do not upset the status quo.
She smiled and bit her bottom lip,
Just in case, her weary tongue would slip.

One fateful day without any warning,
Those suppressed emotions came a-calling,
They shouted "we must now be heard",
It's my rightful turn or you will burn.

....and burn she did, when the pains started rising,
The unbearable chest pains were very surprising.
Emotions which were pushed aside,
Now collaborated, they all united.

Like a stream of fire, gushing unabated,
It made prior labour pains seem over-rated.
The emotions now got her undivided attention,
However she was rendered in suspension.
Speechless, motionless on her back
as the emotions became a panic attack.

She thought she was going to see her maker,
But it was not her day, it was just a shake up.
A reminder to give all her feelings a place
and to take care amidst stress, verbal abuse and haste.

For in the end, it's one life and one body,
Nothing's worth it - no - not for status nor money.
