There are moments when it’s crowded and you can’t breathe.

Or when it’s crowded and you want to get out and move the hell away.

When you wish you could shout it.

Bury it somewhere deep and hope it’s shut for good.

They say you wouldn’t feel the need to melt away with this almost-winter mid-light and air. And they have no clue.
