Even though I cannot leave my house
I sometimes peek outside my window
Looking out I start to feel like a scared mouse
So I just go back to my pillow.
Instead of leaving or going out
My feet get stuck and my chest gets tight
And all I can do is pout
because just out sound of my touch is a beautiful sight.
I have mesmerized the view
Then out of no where somethings happens
something triggered by a cue
I never know what happens.
I can't breathe fast enough to feel my lungs
I get dizzy and almost fall right down
My heart starts to sound like pair of drums
i cover my ears to block out the sounds.
Life is not easy for a person like me,
But one day you'll see me out drinking sweet tea.
