Today

Twisted and afraid

Scattered and bleak

Insignificant 

Muttled sounds blustered by equivocating lips

Its so loud

I can't hear you

It's so loud

Why cant I hear you

Numb

Desecrated teardrops racing to meet the suns light

Escaping to dance atop the angles of the silhouette that house my racing thoughts 

Impatiently prancing along the creases and crevices of the embedded Lineage that holds proof of life's journey

Softly caressing my mouth as I release a breath

Sipping the flavor of warm bitterness
