They say you are never alone
"They" say we always have someone
They "say" it's going to work out
But only in the future does it smoothen itself
Those moments we bear
Like the birth of the universe
Through bleeding eyes
And pulsing minds
Sharp pains and contractions in the heartbeat
Gut us honestly
And wring out every poison we have lapped from rotten boots
Every poison from rusted blades
Knotted binds in our chest
And our Lungs run out of liquid between the bone
And stick to our ribs
These moments we bear
Like the death of the soul
Sitting suffocating
On silent hills
Far off from childhood
Blind to the grasses itch
Painfully sensitive to the kids laughing and smiling without us,just over the hill
Curled up in our home
Called our body
We have never felt more isolated
We sob
Beg and plead for release
Wailing to the stratosphere
For a single clarifying breath
We choke again
Hyperventilating,there is too much air around us
Too much oxygen,it burns heavy
These moments we share
Across the nation
All over the globe
In that moment
Of our most gutteral cry
Our sob of desperation is multiplied tenfold
Is it intensified with the power and surge of everyone who is mourning
And that is the salt in our tears
That scorches our eyes
And the spit
That clogs our throat
Strangling our cries
It is the rasp and the tear
That plagues our sobs
And it is the tension
That snaps in our minds
