Chronophobia

Chronophobia Poem by Rejith Regi

Tick! Tock!
Tick! Tock!

My face becomes red
and I can't tell what my mind has said.
Because the clock is ticking fast.
I feel like I've lost my past.
Wait! What did my mind just say?
I think I've lost my way.

I am starting to sweat.
My palms are becoming wet.
My shirt starting to soak.
I think I'm going to choke.

Ahh! This is insane!
I think I've melted my own brain!
Oh Time! Why are you torturing me?!!
Slow down! I beg of thee.
