Downing in Air

run
while you can
while you can still breathe
before it stops you
like always
before it inevitably
reaches your throat
your eyes
your lungs
its coming
it always does
run
run
run
before it can come
leap with your feet
as they flee in fear
its coming
its coming
its fading
taking the ground away
till you can no longer
stand
till you can no longer
see
till you can no longer
breathe
and soon it will all
fade to black
and the
rainbow boundaries
will appear
in mirror-like reflections
no one else sees
because they'll never know
what it means
to push yourself
beyond limits
you never set
or even wanted
all you want now
is to breathe
or to stop
but its too late
and you try
but you've gone
too far to let go now
and all you can do is
drown in air

| it gives a feel of great difficulty and almost like you have a giant emptiness in your breath, and it has to be filled, but you cant fill it, because you're struggling, and no one can save you. wow... awesome write... great topic... asthma... ya, great topic. :D |
