Catching my breath

Times like these it feels like I might float away

I am lighter than air in these moments.

So I fill my lungs full oxygen in order to ground myself-

But I feel my heart lurch and drop to the floor.

 

If only I could float away-

To keep my heart from dropping.

 

 

 

The beast

With all things considered
To be human was to be weak
Humanity was a frail thing
Like leaving a part of your body
Unarmoured as you entered the war
So she chose to walk the earth as a beast

“All hope abandon, ye who enter in!”
For Hope
Wears a mask of beauty and grace.

But Hope is a lie
She is what crushes the hearts
Of those who cling to her.

Hope can snap a humans spine
With the mere pressure
of her pinkie finger.

Say goodbye to Hope.
And you will be rewarded
With friendship in Peace.
