fitting within
ripped the promise
of buried tomorrow

suffering the day
awaken the feeling
of breath inside

slipped in satin

tripping from the day
covered in selfish
white poses

promising the day
shades of frustration
to glorify boxes

nailed from the inside

Victims, aren't we all?

I really like this, Amy.

Especially the repeat references to:
suffering,
tripping,
promising,
the day.

Great work.
Thanks.

Good work, Amy...interesting usage of tense in this...I think it needs a couple of reads to get a full appreciation of the tenses...

definitely good visuals
