An already wounded heart
flutters in my chest
An onslaught of severe emotions
anxiety, and depression’s, best
.
A love so deeply felt
nestled beneath my bosom
A lazy smile appears
thoughts so pure, and wholesome
.
Faster than the speed of sound
misery does appear
A seismic wave of mourning
internal cries pierce my ears
.
A vortex of desperation
sweeps into my path
A sucker-punch to my sternum
sends my thoughts into my past
.
Abandonment enters the atmosphere
a sense of forever alone
Unable to see this worth
that so many say we own
.
Mountainous land of burdens
pursue my serene desires
Causing catastrophic calamity
a spike strip to my tires
.
Hope traverses the runway
all eyes stare in awe
Just like that, she disappears
forcing me into a crawl
.
Below the darkness, I move
just trying to stay alive
Rolling to dodge the shadows
as they reach for my demise
.
The light at the end of the tunnel
seems further, and further away
The path that leads to freedom
grows more fragile every day
