Taken To A Bad Place

by Nicole M. - Gemini

My lungs compress
And I'm back
To when I become
that tainted four year old
   but I'm not sure.

I start to shake
And I'm back in the third grade
Being held down
Out on the playground
   i think.

I hear the wrong words
or smell the wrong scent
And a year ago
I'm thrown back
But it wasn't that important
   or was it?

How can anyone else
Get inside this deformed mind
If even I don't know
What dwells inside?
