Drowning

Lungs,
Filled with
Doubt.
Filling,
Every organ
Till I can’t move.

Immobilized,
Trapped,
In this spot.
Fear,
Drapes my skin.

Paralyzed,
From
Self sabotage.
These voices,
Making me
Rooted to this spot.

Feet,
Weighted.
Body,
Empty of emotion.
Just existing
In a cold world.

Heart,
Beating fast,
Breathing,
Shallow.
I lay in
Fetal position;

Too numb
To live.
