it’s like i’m playing a reverse game of battleship
crafting my words with caution
guessing and choosing carefully what to reveal
hoping nothing i say
catches fire
......
I am drowning.
I am struggling to breathe.
I scream.
I panic.
I plead.
I beg for someone to help me.
But they don't.
They just stare wide-eyed.
Because they can breathe just fine.
I cough.
