by Neelima Sankar
I couldn’t even breathe properly,
An unwanted feeling which was making my heart too heavy.
It was suffocating me,
A feeling of not knowing what to do?
I hated being questioned, probably because I didn’t have an answer to anything.
It seemed like I was filled with darkness,
There was light all around me, but I couldn’t feel it.
