not a pleasant morning

the early morning wind blows peacefully
though, the coldness successfully suffocates my lungs

I close my eyes and I imagine
if I were up in the clouds
or if I were underwater
trying to justify all these sufferings

but everytime I open my eyes
the only thing I could picture
is a blank wall with some yellowish stains 
and my back leaning on a pillow
that feels like a stack of thatch
too, the fabrics that I'm wearing
feel itchy as if they were scratching and digging up my skin

my mind starts to shut down
slowly slowly slowly
making me helpless
making me want to fall into a deep slumber

there's no hope

i am not normal
having to receive such pain in the head
that feels like someone's banging it against the wall
that feels like someone's talking disturbingly inside

i am not normal
having to put much effort on my feet
that I need to crawl because the wind froze them
and that something's growing to kill me

i am not normal
having to focus on my breathing and hold onto an inhaler
that it suffocates me whenever I feel not safe
that it takes the oxygen away when the cold comes

i am sick
so sick
i am ill
so ill

not being able to function mentally and physically

i am broken
so broken

not a poem, just my thoughts

what's all of this?
it's supposed to be a glory
it's supposed to be a celebration
it's supposed to be a new beginning to the better future ahead
but all I see is a loss
a hiding behind walls
a hundred steps backwards going through the same old shit

I finally found a will to live
but it doesn't mean anything now
dreams are for those who are privileged
desires are for those who are privileged
feeling safe while being ignorant is for those who are privileged
and I am not one of them

my mental state isn't getting better
the feeling of something crawling out from my guts
the feeling of being spied on and haunted by
the voices that are starting to come back
and again, I lose hope
I'm starting to question myself
did hope ever exist in the first place?
or was it all in my imagination all along?

I am tired
maybe I should get some sleep
that's what people said to me
but how can I sleep when it fucks me up even when I'm asleep?
knowing there's no escape
but I'm not ready to face reality yet
saying as if I had a choice
life is funny sometimes
