The Weight Of Fragility

An invasive fire permeates the skin
As vibrations seethe through
The whispering wind
Rarely to rebound, for the smog that shrouds
Attenuating while it thickens within

Blood repletes the eyes
As day withholds no rest for night
The earth tremors through every step
For pain's potential, eternal death
When anxiety afflicts the want for life

Under dulling clouds of roaring thunder
An ocean cries out from a fathomless pit
Where love is lorn, in its wake to wonder
Why every moment's a struggle
Which will not be missed

To feel the light amid a tear
Yet to dream and die in fear
With every touch, the soul responds
But seldom a breath to breathe beyond
The unbearable
