fatigue

her face is
riddled with imperfections;
cracked lips cease to smile,
drooping eyes cease to shine
as she becomes a walking comatose.

the tension inside SURGES whilst
her carcass decays,
each blow to the feeble cocoon inside
scrambling her thoughts into
a hurricane of stress,
spiralling manically,
demolishing all in its path.

she collapses,
free-falling from the sky of despair
as she slams
into the cushions of sanctuary,
a place to briefly [forget]
her devastated world of fatigue.
