You’re scared
Fingers trembling
Heart tight with anxiety
You can’t breathe
You can’t think
Can’t function
You’re scared
You’re uncomfortable
Lost in thought
Wishes made to never be
You want to be free
Wings were made to be spread
Not tied back in string
You want to fly
Soar the blue skies
Till you’re forced to the ground by exhaustion
Experience everything
And nothing
Feel the pain
Embrace the smiles
Cry
Scream
Tear at your skin
And regret in the morning
Life was never meant to be easy
But no one told us it would be this hard
This exhausting
This stressful
No one spoke the words
No one will remember
Oblivion is inevitable
Like death is life’s only certain truth
