Nathan Murillo’s poem

 It's 5 am, I'm in my room, tossing, turning, don't know what to do 

Then all of a sudden I get a sharp pain in my head.

This feeling of my body

shutting down just started and this is new to me

I don't know what to do my heart racing,

jumping, skipping, it's moving fast, numbness through my whole body.

I need help.

I want this feeling to go away

I want to go to sleep

I need to breathe, I need to calm down,

My grandma is here to comfort me.

Going to the doctor feels like it's been hours.

I am there only to be told I am fine and healthy although I feel like I had a heart attack.

This is only the start of many.
