Silence the ringing! quieter! quieter! I can't hear myself!
It's squeezing and clutching! Tugging and hurting!
I can't breathe, I-I can't. Breathe!
the reaper is waiting,
intently staring,
relishing.
Yet, I linger.
the enemy, do you see it? Right there!
can you see it? I gotta escape
the toxicity, it's infesting my mind,
I'm not okay.
crimson creeping up,
sweat dripping down,
I'm quivering,
I'm perishing,
Stuttering, "why is the bed shaking so wildly??"
I'm seizing the world at my feet blindly,
I whisper to myself, trembling ever so lightly,
"B-b-breathe in, b-breathe out."
"B-breathe in, breathe out."
Can you see me, still fogging up my bedroom window?
