𝐏𝐨𝐞𝐭𝐫𝐲

breathe

twisting
turning
bubbling
suffocating

tangled
trapped
silenced
snared

my insides burn
life boiling in my veins
my head suffocated by
the fog in my mind

truth and lies
tangled in my head
what is real
and what's pretend

stress rises
in my soul
inches from
overflowing

fear towers around me
blocking everything
i see
painting an image
of what
will never be
