Amidst the Chaos

A Poem

By Eliza WoodPublished 8 years ago • 1 min read

Amidst the chaos, I cannot sleep. My body and mind breathe sighs of exhaustion.

Physical chaos at my feet. Mental turmoil in my dreams. I feel lost.

No matter what direction I should choose, I could drown.

Trying. Trying is like swimming, but feeling the water filling up my lungs. I feel myself struggling to get to the surface, but down, down I go.

Amidst the chaos, the angry quiet fills my ears as I struggle. I desperately search for any remaining oxygen within. Yearning for a breath.

Chaos surrounding me. Give me a lifeline. Give me hope, Amidst the chaos.
