my heartbeat’s glitching, slipping off-beat, like it’s scared to even be alive. i’m trying to breathe through the shaking, but the panic hits me like a drive-by. i swear i’m holding on so tight, but everything keeps pulling me down. my thoughts get twisted in circles, ’til i can’t hear a single sound. heartbeat glitching like my brain full of dull, fading in and out again. i’m trying to steady the rhythm, but it’s trembling under my skin. why do i fall for the same lies? why do i shiver when you call? every promise tastes like poison, every word just makes me crawl. heartbeat slowing, speeding, breaking, can’t decide what it wants to be. i’m losing track of my feelings, losing track of what’s left of me. heartbeat glitching like my brain of dull, echoing through my chest so slow. if i could reset the pressure, would the pain finally let go?
