The moment, when it all comes down at once
The weight comes crashing into your back, snapping your spine in two.
Struggling to breathe as you put all of your strength into holding it up
It takes mental strength. You forgot to work out last night.
Trying to keep from tripping on your own feet.
Eventually, it gives away, falling on top of you.
Comes out in clots, clots of sentiments and emotions,
Spat out by the gray scribbles which slither through your mind.
Controlling you, Every time you encounter another being with supposed intellect
The sweat pooling up in your clenched palms, shivers rolling down your neck
Struggling, violently but silently, not to let more of it pour out onto the ground.
Not to be crushed dead.
Every scream is a whisper, every whisper is a scream.
Anything audible goes through in radio static.
The expressions, their questioning expressions.. They glance for a second then excuse the phenomenon.
All you can do is look at the ground, choke on your breaths
Hold on to your chest, press the β€œclear” button.
The moment, when it all comes down at once.
