trapped

Click
I lock the bathroom stall
But The panic I’ve been feeling all day 
Still finds a way in
My chest starts to tighten 
Like a dress on thats 2 sizes to small
With a corset back
being pulled harder and harder
My eyes start to blur
As the tears I’ve been holding back since 1st period slide down my cheeks 
Like salty river streams
It’s been a few minutes
And I need to get back to class
But my breath is escaping me
Being replaced by panic
2 more minutes pass 
I need to get out

    And who tried to push you down
