Powerful, heartbreaking work, young lady...A decent poet is able to bring their Readers to their work, , , A good poet is able to capture their Reader's within the work...make them feel your emotion, as if they had experienced the event with you....And that's just what you did here...Solid penning ~FjR~
This poem shows the stress of modern urban life reaching a crisis level, that means you must escape from the stress situation RIGHT NOW. So you stay home but the stress doesn; t stop, at least no new stress is added as you try to recover.

This is vivid poetry detaling with a pressing problem of coping with the negative issues of modern life.
