The air is continuously heavy
As it crawls down to my lungs
I unconsciously inhale deeply
Only to swallow my tongue
I suffocate on every word
Struggling to communicate
Heartbeat slows, my pulse expires
My love can you relate
Unseen by all is an overturned car
Finding its center of gravity on my chest
Swaying with each new uproar
Crushing, shredding, tearing the rest
Im a pile of blackening ashes
Every bone in my body ablaze
Unnoticed I blow on by your feet
Forced through another diabolic maze
Once broken down and destroyed
I reform with a new formidable side
My eyes are a never ending telescope
Take a long look there open wide
Can you see through to my lost soul
Dont break the connection so quickly
Even if its nearly impossible to speak
Tell me what your sunken eyes see
Fumbling over your words
Cant correctly assemble your thoughts
Jaw dropping eyes swelling, traumatized
No longer grounded, running distraught
Sinking further into the pavement
As it breaks under my bare swollen feet
Taking one last platonic look at the world
Before the still blackness envelopes me, complete.
