I Can't Breathe

I Can't Breathe

A Poem by Skylar
"

sometimes at night I feel like this, I wanted to describe it and this is what I got.

"
I stare at the ceiling,
lost in the nothingness, drowning,
my heart beats faster, pounding out of my chest in the deafening silence,
my body is motionless, unmovable, I strain to move, but my body is trapped,
under the suffocating stale air that fills my lungs, I can barely breathe, I dream of falling,
the silhouette figures seep out of my mind, filling my room and watching me from the darkest corners,
they need to breathe, leaving me as a lifeless corpse, I forgot how to live without them,
they control my whole body, and without them im a body left for dead, these are the moments I fade out of reality, the darkness wraps around me, somehow im comforted,
comforted by a voice that tells me not to let go... to hold on a little longer,
but then the shadows hear the murmurs and they claw back into my skin,
scraping at my veins pulsing with darkened blood to my heart encased in cracked stone,
they apply weight on my eyes and pound on my chest,
they fill my throat breaking through the stale air, filling my lungs with shadows,
and my mind is bashed open breaking into a million pieces until the shadows seep inside,
and seal it back together with the poisonous black ink they are coated in,
and the cracked stone around my heart seals into one, and I am supposedly alive again....
the darkness is inside again.
