Breath

By Vidhi Rawal

There’s pressure building in my chest

In my body I feel like a guest

Everyone’s looking at me for sure

My brain creates thoughts so dark even i cant endure

I try to assure myself its not true

Nobody’s talking about you

But the power of these thoughts are so strong

I don’t know how long I can hold on

After the episode all that remains

My face red and covered with stains

I try to look for a way out

Alone with my thoughts I continue to shout

No one’s going to save me from this

No prince charming can cure it with a kiss

Its a never ending cycle of torture

Has successfully pushed me away into a corner

People don’t know whats going on in my head

How many tears that i have shed

Battles ive fought with my worst fear

Build walls so high that no one comes near

Tried applying bandages on wounds so deep

Everything still leaks out as I continue to weep

Hands shakes and my body shivers

As My thoughts forces me to face the mirrors

Ive finally given up on living

Everything comes down spiralling

Thoughts have won and they celebrate 

As i lay down and take my final breath
