Grey Thoughts

Every Breath

Go on Life,

Suffocate my dreams

Bring on adversity

Burst my seams

Squeeze tighter

Step on my soul

Leave me broken

Out of control

And, then watch,

With bewildered eyes

Confidence increase

As I begin to rise

For hope is innate,

In each, every breath,

Extinguished

Only by death

Touch my chest

Feel my heart beat

Hear its rhythm

Admit defeat
