I can't understand

Why I am feeling like this

I don't want to

But I am.


I don't want

To be pushed in a small space

Nowhere to move

Nothing to choose.


I just want

To do what I want

To choose what I want

To do.


I want to live

Happily, freely

A life without any fear.

A happy life.


I feel what I can't say

But I feel it every day

A feeling of pain and nervousness

That I can't describe

I see darkness

And horror in things

Those things around me

Which I have to see.


And I don't understand

If this is just me

If I was born

To live with the fear I see.
