my heart aches with an unknown purpose
it feels so tight in my chest
and it's so tight that I can't breathe
it's an ache that consumes my entire being
it makes me feel like I'm sinking
suffocated by grief
engulfed by the waves of anxiety and fear
pulled down to the depths of the ocean by the weight of the world
weight that I am not strong enough to carry on my own
trying to be strong so I can keep head above water,
but it's so hard when I'm all alone
