I scream and no one hears it

19.Anxiety

'Why do you wake up even on a slight noise? Why are you such a light sleeper?'

I am scared.

Its fear, it's anxiety that gets triggered by the helplessness of childhood.

There were nights, I was told by my mom to sleep, she is awake and will look after us.

There were days, when I heard her calling my mom's name even while sleeping.

I was a kid, but a mature kid enough to understand everything.

But, that was my growing age, that was the time when I was being mold into the person I was suppose to be in the future.

And, here I am.

A 21 year old dumb, who wakes up even on a slight noise.

Who can't stop writing because, she can't say it to anyone.

Becuase no one understands.

Because she doesn't want to sound like an attention seeker.
