Breathe
I can't breathe anymore.
I'm drowning.
How did I end up here?
I am just failing,
my inner self is cracking.
Nothing is important anymore:
my hopes
my dreams
nothing.
Nothing is worth it anymore.
Just aim for success, they said.
Suceed and you'll go anywhere.
But I'm failing.
Failing, failing, failing, failing, failing
failing.
Why do I need to be here?
I am not needed.
I am not inteligent.
I am not strong.
I am broken.
Broken, broken, broken, broken, broken
broken.
I can't stop crying,
I am shaking.
I cannot see.
I cannot breathe.
I cannot feel anymore.
What's the point of flying
if your wings are already gone?
