It burns when I breathe
Something Im sure no one can see
The frog in my throat
Clogging my lungs
Seizing the air
Like I've been hung
Gasping for more
With each breath I take
suffocating
waiting
for my neck to break
It burns to breathe
Something Im sure no one can see
Under my skin
Charred inside
Blackened lips
Staining my pride
Reaching
And crying out
To find the one
without a doubt
To save me
Give me air
Fill my lungs
Dont allow
My neck to tear
I cant breathe
Nobody can see
That inside me
Lies a child
Waiting to scream
Like in a dream
A repeated theme
Where lies me
A child
Buried in debris
Drowning
In the sea
Suffocating
Cannot breathe
About to tear
Nobody cares
Lost it all
Complete despair
I cant breathe
And though I know no one can see
I want them to know
To see me struggling
And to care
