Mellifluous Murmurs

I Can Barely Breathe

My heart collided with what seemed to be a rock

my veins nipped itself off

and I became that rock.

I tried to look around for anything to get me out of my dilemma

anything!

Anything at alll...

I was dying ever so slowly,

my head was intently exploding

and my heart was shattering quickly.

Because I became that rock.

I can barely breathe.

I can't breathe.

I'm going to die.

My fingers jammed on the piano keys 

and I felt a pulse;

a strike– that familiar sense...

I was stranded.

I am stranded.

I will be stranded.

I am that rock.

Senseless, unnecessary, dried up flesh.

I can barely breathe.
