Chapter 2: Trapped

(See the end of the chapter for notes.)

Chapter Text

I hear the heart beating
and the mouth breathing,
Wondering what it’s like to live in this organism
people so call wreathing.

Everything feels so close,
so tight.
Like those uncomfy socks my grandmother used to gift me on christmas.
They’re itchy, but I still wore them.
I still wore them even if they brought me misery.

Breathing gets heavier,
space gets deadlier.
My cells are declining
Eager for help, but no ones reviving.

I grasp my hand and reach out for help,
all to see a black shadow that has fell.

Here I am sitting with the socks on,
whilst the air on my throat walks on.

My heart is ripped,
teeth are chipped.

Flashbacks from Christmas arrive.
The heavy feelings bark up my scars,
making me feel no more alive.

Notes:

Notes:

Helloooooo! Ahem, as you can see, this is my very first post on AO3 :D
I decided to start sharing my poems because why not? As well as some people could find this relatable. :)
Can you guess what the poem is about? :D (A star shall be awarded for the correct answer).
(p.s., please don't mind the tags, or warnings, or whatever; i'm still tryna figure how to use AO3).
