Drowning.A Poem by Katsura
Drowning
Drowning as the tears don't fall Drowning as they go back in, flowing down my trachea and filling up my lungs. Building Building a wall with my smile Building a way to keep the emotions inside, keep my true feelings from crawling out. Choking Choking back the screams Choking back the voice of my soul, keeping it to myself so I don't "bother" anyone. Squeezing Squeezing my heart together Squeezing it to keep it from falling apart, as each thought and emotion rends it apart. Dying Dying as each and every one of these kills me, wondering how I can die when I'm already this dead inside, wincing at every spasm, hiding inside myself, tiring, burning, wishing... Done. © 2018 Katsura |
