Pause
Time
Please stop
World has moved
Way too fast
Can't breathe
Blinded by distraction
Can't focus
Tangled by insanity
Knowing
Each of us
In our own pace
Yet being dragged behind
Drowned deep in doubts and fears
All over again
Trying to keep afloat
Struggling to open my eyes
Where I am going
Smokescreen
Fogging my consciousness
Half accepting my death
Half crying to live
Unknown force
Pushing my body out
Safely on land
Coughing
Grasping for air
Light on my eyes
It is not my time yet
Have to keep moving
Slowly progressing
All I know
Looking ahead
A step closer
When fears fear me
When doubts bow to me
When I can cry and smile
As hard as I want
Fulfillment complete
