she sat nervously,
trying to find different points of focus.
she stretches her legs out and sits on the hard wood floor.

she can feel her heart pounding.
another focus point.

her eyes water.
another focus point.

closing her knees against her chest,
she fights off sinking into her thoughts again.

focus point.

she felt the shame of guilt numbing her hands.
she started to quietly shake.
her face turns flush
flashes of heat climb her skin.

her body lost,
to all this anxiety.
