It's All For You

Shallow breathing awakens the earthquakes inside you.

Bones shattering, muscled bleeding as if in a vaccume.

There's not enough space for your lungs to work properly, and

the hinges to yourself loosen and rust over, as

your body doubles forward; being pitched into the dark

with momentum of the S-wave riding on your shoulders.

A vacency sign now hangs on your motel window, asking

passerbys to fill this room you created; with a crescendo as moving as a fault line,

just for them.
