The Pressure.
The Stress.
I'm drowning. Seas of emotions, far too deep.
I'm crumbling. Walls of thoughts, way too high.
Out of reach, is common sense. No voice of reason. No holding on.
Far too deep.
Way too high.
I can't swim.
I can't climb.
Shattering glass. Like thoughts are shattered.
Falling trees. Like words that fall from mouths.
______
We Broke, like mirrors break when they get punched.
We hid, like animals hide when they sense danger.
We screamed, like pigs when they get slaughtered.
__________
Breaking, hiding, screaming, dying. Things we want or don't want to. Things we can't avoid. It's in our nature but against our will. Or we want but cannot reach.
