Awkward week



Insurmountable twist to stay afloat

Hope disappearing

Expectations crumbling down

The days look the same

Crushing slowly on the scale of despair

I can't escape my human condition

Caged within myself

Longing for to be free

Longing for to breath and exhale

outside of my shelled seclusion

I'm standing here

I'm standing there

Awaiting to tell a story

To myself about myself.
