Every Damn Time

Palms sweating,
Forehead beading,
Stomach churning,
Heartbeat pounding,
Mind whirring,
Nerves tingling,
Eyes twitching,
Skin trembling,
Legs shaking,
Lips chewing,
Teeth grinding,
Knees locking,
Jaw clenching,
Guts wrenching,
Brain numbing,
Fingers fumbling,
Envelope opening,
Heart sinking,
Tears falling,
Fear impending,
Pressure fading,
Life ending.
