i cursed myself
threw things around
yelled and moaned
feeling worthless
you tried to soothe me
saying all the right things
but i couldn’t hear
you
i was within a vortex
which became narrower
and narrower
with no escape in view
you still had no
access
but knew one thing
it will pass
minutes later
my outlook was calmer
a smile cracked my face
my words were coherent
enough to
explain
the trigger that
caused it
let’s breathe
and relax
it was only a storm
and it passed
