Muscles strain.
One breath, two reps.
Push through the pain.
One breath, two steps.
Tears catch; burn.
One breath, two wet lines.
Across my face, blink; return.
One breath, two reps. One breath, two reps.
Her face is on my mind;
One breath, pause.
Think about her; what you lost.
Break; shoulders shake, heave, gasp,
build back up; Breathe. Then again, strain. Forget the pain.
Don't think; Refrain.
One breath, no thought.
Don't think about the pain.
One breath, no thought.
No thoughts, no pain.
One breath,
too many thoughts,
one breath,
but in vain...
Muscles catch,
heart strains,
breaks, the pain too much to sustain,
the pain of her face; encompassing my brain,
Her face is on my mind again.
Rest in peace.
