Locked away in Freedom, Drowning

Free, yet claustrophobic.

Exposed as you drown. 

Your weaknesses are shown to everybody, as if you were exposed, but you're, at the same time, trapped. 

Trapped in poisonous freedom, drowning as you grasp the light, only to sink further. 

You can't breathe, there's nowhere to run, no walls to curl up to, and nothing but darkness. 

You try to be strong, you pretend you're alright, you say there's nothing wrong, you try to stand alone, you want to fight your own battle, so you don't call for help. 

You fear, that if you call for help, nobody will come. 



So here you are, locked away in freedom, drowning.
