Silent Struggles

I wake, lost between sleep and sound,

A world that roars, I’m not around.

Encased in glass, joy out of reach,

A face unknown, words out of speech.

—

In crowded rooms, I fade away,

A ghost that no one sees or sways.

Each breath a fight, each step a strain,

Hope flickers out, consumed by pain.

—

Tomorrow may bring light to see,

But for now, I drift lost at sea.
