Part 44

Everything is cold -

from my skin

to my bones,

from the air

to the ground.

I break them

each time

I fall.

Every time

I go under,

drowning,

at some point -

the cold breathes

life

into my aching lungs.

Part of me

wants to know

what it's like

to burn,

to feel anything

other

than numbness

or coughing up

what could've been

something

more. 

if you're born to be hung, you will never drown
