I am a drowning fish

I want to be a drowning fish,
Swimming in a sea of pain.
gasping. for. air.
Instead I'm a flightless bird
Gasping for liberty
The freedom speaks to me from outside my closed window
I envisioned jail before.
I felt the cold bars press against my face
I want to drink my tears.
From my cell, I could hear men
screaming.
screaming.
The word freedom scrape against their throats.
I want to scream.
I'm a drowning fish.
screaming.
Dying in the desert of life.
I am a heartless human.
Unable to love.
I am a fish.
a heartless fish.
Unable to love, drowning in pain.
