CHARMAINE SIMPSON - Losing Breath

Losing breath – trembling with fear – choking sensation – out of control,
Mind plays flashing pictures – no sense – feeling crazy – no control,
I need you – I need to talk – you are taken – cant be reached – cant speak,
Blocked – stopped – panicked – spinning- falling – drowning – sinking,
Suffocating – crying – lost – alone – what could I do? - I need you –
Why can’t I speak to you? – Can’t you hear me calling?
Can’t you feel me in your heart? – Crying – crying for you – Why?
Why did she want to hurt me? – Why did she take you from me? –
Did you know? – Did you want this to happen? – Do you love her?
Do you love me? – WHY? ? ?
