thread plucked with
two fingers and held
taut like patience stretched
too close and never
allowed to scream

rotting inside I
try to breathe
strangled by the outside
pollen and dust and
such that I never
allowed to dream.

A tight pull, Eminor...one small tweak...perhaps add "am" in this line
"such that I never"

and I think you will have it!

*deep breath* Wow.... this is awesome. Absolutely amazing. You should have seen my jaw drop the first time I read it.
