how much longer do I still have to hold my breath?

the walls are closing in;
people wrenching my lungs.

I'm on the edge of bursting,
how much longer do you think I can hide?

I'm desperate for the air
that everyone else is breathing.

I can only inhale for so long,
until my lungs give in.

how much longer do I still have to hold my breath?

society's fingers are leaving bruises on my neck.

please let go.
