You thought

You had it
All 
Held it
Momentarily
A secret whisper
Hidden behind
Someone else's 
Universe 
A tiny key
A tiny lock
A click 
And a turn
But it went
Before
It was a clear 
Picture
In your mind
Punctured
And you turn 
Up the music 
To hide 
The hiss 
Of escaping air
Of leaking
Life
But you can't 
Stop the flow
Not with
All 
Your fingers
And toes
Not with all
Of your heart
It always breaks
The damn
Always bursts
And the lucky 
Are left 
Gasping
For air
Whilst everyone 
Else 
Suffocates
