“Stale Air”

I'm breathing a stale air that lingers
A heavy feeling that presses on my chest
There's no way for me to run away from this envelope
To endure is the only way to survive this menace

Sobbing at the dark corner of the room
There's nothing much that I can do at this point
Believing that the future will be better is a far fetch
But giving up is not an option either

I'm reading through the lines of your message
The struggles are revealed under the hidden words
I can't seem to find a way to understand everything in a few lines
Am I thinking too much?

Questions are piling up and yet no answers arise
Searching through the depths of your thoughts is an endless journey
There's very little clue to where this path will lead
It's like flowing with the stream that leads to the horizon

It's a scary feeling to travel beyond this point
Will I reach the destination or will it be a drop to the falls
I can't hear any signs of optimism in the air
A stale and lifeless air that lingers no matter how I run away.

Thank you for sharing, hopefully our life will not be like the one in your poem, friend. Giving up will not change the situation, keep fighting to get to the goal point.
