you got every parts of me, 

it’s like I’m trapped 

another night, another day, 

all I do is lay 

crying over my pillow 

closing every window

screaming and wishing 

under my sheets 

I feel like drowning 

suffocating 

and still

I keep on staying 

and you got every parts of me 

even the one I wish nobody could’ve see 

and I feel so guilty 

because who I am if not lazy 

that’s what they all say

so tired I can’t go away

knots in my stomach 

guess I’m  gonna sleep 

lulled by my tears 

and by my heavy breaths


another night, another day

The author's comments:

"Ossean is 17 years old and currently doing her senior year as an exchange student in michigan. She has been scribbling and playing with words since a young age but keeps the hope that her work got better as she grew up. You can find her in the alley of a bookshop or cuddling her cat, most of the time with her headphones listening to Taylor Swift. Though she aspires to big things in her life, for now, she just daydreams way too much and doesn't write enough."
