Unbreakable

Lying on my bed, goosebumps spreading on my skin,

A chaos inside me, I don’t know where to begin.

It feels like my body is shattering, breaking apart,

Silent screams echo deep in my heart.

I gasp for air, but none stays within,

My body rejects it, though my cells crave to win.

“I might die,” is the thought in my mind,

Yet a flicker of hope lingers behind.

The pain is sharp, but I know it will fade,

This storm will pass; I won’t be afraid.

I’ll shatter to pieces, but I’ll rebuild,

A strength from within, no longer stilled.

I’ll rise again, though no one’s near,

Even if the world abandons, I’ll persevere.

I’ll love myself when no one does,

For in my heart will bloom a cause.

The dead tree will sprout with life anew,

Fresh young buds will break through.

For every dark night, a dawn will appear,

A brighter morning, free from fear.
