Suffocation

Hurt is a four letter word that seems

to limited for the amount you will feel.

The astounding flame that swallows your heart.

Drowning on air as it inflates your lungs,

the opposite of what you long for it to do.

Everything is aching.

The unrelenting life that's being lived persevering against all odds.

Nothing can cease the world from spinning,

but it would be easiest if it would.

The standstill feeling superior to the constant coiling

around the axis on which we survive.

Breathing gets harder as you invade the eye of the pain,

the hurricane of hurt unyielding to your needs.

Gravity feels burdensome,

a boulder presuming you into the terrain.

The continual weight feels suffocating, sedentary on your chest

as you choke out the feeble breathe that's been compelled into your lungs.

One can't help but think, is this living

or is this dying
