Fear is a cage

Trapping me

Holding me

Keeping me in the same spot

I can peek through the bars

Get a glimpse of hope

But a shadow of fear covers it

Fear is a cage

Stopping me

Lying on plush couches,

Scrolling mindlessly on TikTok,

Then David Muir says something.

“The Supreme Court is destroying democracy.”

You stumbled into my life like fall,
the way the air sharpens,
the first breath caught in my lungs,
catching me off guard,
an ache I didn’t know I missed.

Ingredients: 

At least 5 blankets 

Warm fuzzy socks 

Halloween themed pajamas 

Your favorite stuffed animals

God, I thought I was in too deep… 

It was just an attachment, but I wish it wasn’t something that cheap

I said it would take me months,

We're weak

And yet you still must

Trap us with laws

Because deep down inside

You know we are strong

We're insignificant

But you get distracted

By our clothes

And you need a girl
