I CAN'T BREATHE

in #poetry9 years ago

I Can't Breathe


I'm literally and figuratively
Struggling to breathe
Every inhalation is shallow
It hurts... I'm being strangled by a shadow


Why did this happen today?
My mind is wandering astray!
I'm struggling... Stop laughing!
Couldn't even say, "Mind your own thing!"


Time is approaching
The clock is constantly ticking
Will I have a happy ending?
Wait! What's happy when it's ending?


I'm feeling so dizzy
My heartbeat's racing
This can't be normal
Do you think, I'm dying?


And if I did, will you cry?
Will small lovely flowers grow from your tears?
I'm helpless... getting hopeless...
Of this life wallowing in distress

Thanks for dropping a comment... Sometimes, we just can't let out our emotions, so they usually take form into something else....^^
