Public Humiliation

I struggle to
Keep it together
Maxims and mottoes
On repeat
In my mind
Just keep on swimming
Counting and breathing
Breathing and counting
One word
Away from tears
Swallow it down
Blink it away
Hidden behind hair
I don’t want to see
Their embarrassment
When it’s truly mine
I don’t want to see
Their pity
Seeing me so low
They say that
You shouldn’t
It isn’t healthy
I only wish
I could bottle it all up
