"She was drowning but nobody saw her struggle."

x

There once was a girl who wants to see the world but her shackles are holding her back, preventing her to do so. There once was a girl who felt to alone, hoping to meet new friends but her cage is holding her back, preventing her from doing so. There once was a girl trapped in a cage, with shackles on both her wrists and feet and she was drowning in the sea.

She was gasping for air, crying out for help but no one heard her, and so no one came. She tried to open the cage door, trying to kick it with all her might, but her shackles are too heavy, making her weary and tired. She tried shouting again, and then someone came but all that person did was watch her drown in pain. She cried, struggled and was out of breath but she kept on shouting, hoping to be saved. 

She inhaled her last lungful of air and she went down in the water along with her shackles and her cage. She looked at the surface and saw the light hitting the water. Bubbles of air are coming out from her mouth, her lungs felt heavy as she struggled not to sleep. She still tried to get away with just a little bit of hope flickering in her eyes. 

And then that was it: she was gone. She left her miserable life behind and all I can do now is hope for her to be happy up in the clouds where she belongs.
