Lights

Help me

I can't breathe

Its like I'm drowning

In an icy cold, deep sea

It's like I'm screaming

But no matter how loud,

Nobody hears

It's like

It's like I'm put on mute

Like there's no sound

I feel like I'm perfectly bound

In a small box

Sealed up tight

Its as if I'm searching

To finally find a way out

To finally be free 

To see all of those magnificent and amazing

Bright shining lights.
