Ode To Panic Attacks (Featuring Anxiety Attacks)

They say what doesn't kill you
makes you stronger
but you do a good job
of making the pain last longer
giving me a chance to kill myself
you also do your very best
to give me as little rest as possible
so while you're an option
you're also an obstacle
an obstacle I must overcome
because sometimes I just need to vent
instead I hyperventilate 
then it's too late
you appear
ever so anxious to take advantage
of my anxiety 
that much is clear
but I don't want you here
even if you think I need you
I don't need your here either
what I need is peace
what I need is for you to cease
cease and desist 
before I cease to exist 
I'm a living being 
who enjoys being alive 
with a will to survive
so I can no longer be your slave
and continue to take this abuse
I must be brave 
because if I let you have my soul
that is when I loose myself
that is when I loose complete control
