Alone to suffocating (Jan 8, 2019)

Panic rises inside
Hold a hand out
No one reaches
Palm finds a wall instead
Brick
Rough
Make a cry
No one answers
All alone
In a void
But in a snap second
People appear
In crowds
Surrounding
Suffocating
Grabbing
Pushing
Jostling
Pushing you down
Try to talk
Cry out again
This time people hear
But no one answers
They push and pull
No air
No air to breathe
Help!
Scream
But no cares
Just another push towards the ground
