Breathe in
Breathe out
Spit, and shit and disgust
Unavoidable
Shame and pity for the sidewalk rock
Heartbeat - thump
Heartbeat - thump
Heartbeat - thump
Icy veins on concrete blocks
Fear
A burden too heavy for one
Breathe in
Breathe out
Breathe in
Blow after blow, shatters and cracks
Fragile
Hatred stares down unforgiving
Heartbeat - thump
Heartbeat - thump
Endless blossoms,sun,leaves,and snow
Precious
Beauty that held my hand and punished me
Breathe in
Breathe out
Save me, leave me, kill me
Tired
Occupy no space and become No One
Heartbeat - thump
Closed eyes and deep breaths
Fly
I’m a superhero unable to survive
