Peaceful resistance
There are moments I feel suffocated
And get anxious, agitated and unfree
In these moments when I feel unhopeful
Also become pathways for my change
At times when I feel suffocated
And find it difficult to get free from the feeling
I only come out with acts which defy such forces
Which only releases me from such feelings
When forced to act within set boundaries
Without allowing for individual spaces
And forced things from top
I only create my own spaces from the bottom
