Heartbeat
My heart beating steadily within my chest
Suddenly speeds up and shows no sign of slowing down
Hearing my wife and her colleagues pleas is too much to bear
All I can feel is my blood rushing into every part of my body
Making me feel more alive than before
All I can do is pace back and forth
All the while driving my teammates and myself slowly insane
I feel so helpless as I pace back and forth digging myself into a larger hole
All the while feeling my neverending anger rise within me
As I fear for the safety of my wife who is the mother of my kids
