Sonnet for Breathing

Panic attacks with just one smile from you,
i can barely breath when you are in view.
Always hyperventilating when you're near,
I'd gasped for air butI'd still want you here.
You make it difficult for me to live,
even worse than being stabbed in the rib.
Like puncturing my lungs to the core,
You're smothering me with the things i adore.
Each glance blocks the oxygen to my nose,
its impossible to breathe when you're close.
You leave me hypoxic with each embrace,
making my actions paradoxic in ways.
It seems like with you i cannot respire,
but without you i would rather expire.
