High up in my tower of lies.
I can barely breathe.
I can barely see.
Water builds;
Fear grows;
Lies tower.
My reflection looking back at me.
Speaking out,"I'm fine. You're fine."
My mask hardens.
Cracks form;
Locks emerge;
Chains tighten.
Wiping tears vigorously.
Screaming silently.
Breaking continuously.
Arising tower;
Secrets stowed;
Fears unload.
Moments of smiles.
Laughing and crying and hugging and dancing and singing!
Moments of lies.
Regrets flood;
Anger boils;
Joy evaporates.
Trying to move on.
Fleeting desire for bliss.
Sudden sadness.
Doubt enters;
Sobs exit;
Fright stays.
Submerged deeper in silence.
Suffocating in the darkness.
Scream in confidential.
Silent echoes.
All ceases.
Unmoving.
Hushed.

Hiii.
You've read this far from my many MANY poems👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽. I hope they didn't disappoint😅😅😅. I just have been feeling down lately so yea.
This poem is pretty much about how sometimes/most of the time everything can and will feel suffocating or trapping you and it's like you can't get out... And eventually all these overwhelming things can end in silence whether it be you who silence the things that are troubling or trapping you OR those things that are troubling or trapping silence you. Not sure if what I thought of while writing this poem is conveyed easily or if you understand it from just the poem. BUT I think poems can mean anything to anyone so if what I felt when writing this poem is not what you felt whole reading the poem then that's all good! Everyone have their own experiences and relations and views and opinions on anything and everything!
Feel free to comment or talk to someone about what you thought. I think it's really important to express what you feel and think to someone(eventhough I don't do it too often) or express what you feel and think through something. Maybe through a hobby,screaming,crying,
talking,writing(e.g.stories,journals,diaries,a comic strip,poems.etc), making music,making arts and crafts,painting,drawing,
making a short film or even a movie, anything. As long as what you do helps you express what you feel and think,you should do it. AND it doesn't harm yourself and/or anyone else.
