Poems
Sep 2019
Can't see, can't breathe
The walls keep me confined
This space I can't see
It keeps me
Every ounce of breath I have
Taken out of me
While my own thoughts consume me
My brain won't stop thinking
Anxiety and fears grip me
And I feel at a loss for control
I can lay alone in my own bed
But the darkness lays with me instead
And it doesn't let me sleep
I sleep, finally free
I awake, happy as can be
I feel fine, at peace with my mind
Then the darkness of the night comes again
And I can't see, can't breathe
