I am awake
awake because the walls
walls are closing in
in so close, I cannot defend my falls.
You ask if I am able
able to describe
describe the freedom
freedom the doctor tried to prescribe.
Brain persuading me to try breathing
breathing even when everything is breaking
breaking down so I can fall
fall back into the routine I'm good at faking.
This time I am scared
scared because I cannot find the desire
desire I tell my admirers about
about what happens when you fuel the wildfire.
