This one is also some where else on this site


A part of my most vital,
suffers a sacred disease.


When we share the air I act as if at a recital,
she holds the remedy that I so badly need.


Like walking on hot embers.
My desire to turn back,
evacuate this one-way track.
This pain has begun to dismember.


The end of this pain is nigh,
in the distance I can see the light.
I move faster and start the fly.
But I am hindered as it is too bright.


As the vision engulfs me.
All that remains are a few scares
