Covid, Sheltered In Poem by Aylin Montoya

Covid, Sheltered In

Rating: 5.0


I don'𝔱 ℘ay a𝔱𝔱ꫀn𝔱ion 𝔱o 𝔱hꫀ world ꫀndin𝑔
ℱor i𝔱 𝓱as ꫀndꫀd many 𝔱imꫀs

I stay inside sheltered from all
I don't see light at day but 4 walls

I don't talk to people
I speak to myself or atleast the voices in my head
Overthinking most the time

The feeling of heat
Being suffocated none other then by my own words

Pain is felt and heard
My pain is sheltered
For no one to see
My emotions are are not heard
I am but in my own head
Sheltered no where to go

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I starting this some time ago & never got around it. It speaks about how i feel now that im basically alone in my home all day. I tend to overthink a lot so most the time my thoughts or what i call the 'voices' get to me. I hate the heat, the feeling of being suffocated or being in a room so small you got nowhere to go. Covid caused a lot of people to go through some mental health issues and although i may feel alone and depressed at times i know i'm not alone and others may feel the same.
