5 Minute Freewrite Prompt : filthy blinds
I looked at the window next to me
Is that really a window
Or just wishful thinking
I feel like it's a dungeon that I've been
For how long I cannot remember
Every second feels like days
Every minute feels like weeks
Every hour feels like months
BUT.. it's only been less than four months
Trying hard to look beyond
Out into the world where there must be light
Yet those filthy blinds are blocking my view
The dust circulate the air around me
Still and stuffy and suffocating everyone
And everything around me
No Air ! Oh No Air !

One person coughs, another person sneezes
Then everyone falls sick in sequence
Is this life ?
Is this what's come to me ?
Is there no light for me ?
Please shine the light and show me the way
I so desperately look up to the ceiling above me
Concretes and florescent lights
Blocks my view just like those filthy blinds
I have to get out
I must get out NOW !!!
Before I'm drowned
Just like all the statues around me

Nice work. I’d say there are a lot of people can identify with those feelings.
It’s the Wednesday prompt delivery operatives here with the verminous prompt for today:

Thanks...
It takes one who has gone through such emotions to fully understand it..
And true, many can relate to such suffocation
