Thin Air
by
Cesar A. Miranda
Feel I
suffocate,
I can’t breathe, can’t feel the air,
I can’t see, can’t find myself,
I’ve lost my mind, my self,
Nothing is important now,
In my own world now I live,
A world of sickness, sadness, pain,
No one wants me, no one cares,
They say crazy I am,
Lonely, left behind,
Now trapped here I am,
Unconscious, out of my mind.
Into thin air I’ve fallen with myself,
Can’t find an exit,
I have failed,
I stand up only to fall again,
No blood just pain running through my veins,
Trapped in my own fears, not being myself again,
I’ve failed.
Desperate I am,
No exit or a spot,
Where I can try to find my peace,
Find a cure or a relief,
Can’t rest, can’t close my eyes,
The whole world disappears,
Vanishes in front of me,
Is just me, myself and I.
No one can understand me how I feel,
No one can help me find my peace,
No one can take me out of this pain,
No one can get through this thin air.
Into thin air, I’ve fallen with myself,
Can’t find an exit, I have failed,
I stand up only to fall again,
My past condemns me, in my fears I’m caught,
These walls surround me, my life is done,
I won’t be myself again anymore,
I’ve failed.
Into thin air I’ve fallen with myself,
Can’t find a way out of this pain,
I won’t get my life back, or either be myself
again,
I’ve failed.
