breathless
feeling the sound vibration flow
spreading out in waves
of anticipation
vein-like and
following an internal structure
and wait
gasp
    gasp
/breath/
all of honor and hope
rides in that breath
to be taken
down
   down

the release
so great
bass brings the
music inside h e r e
instead of up there
brains are boring
the p u l s e
is life

only up to this                                                             ­     point.

you've been a good sport, my heart.
you were definitely...
passionate enough.

you said,
    "love is war,
      i am your soldier".

i'm in pain,
     yet you never came.

you held my hand,
     and there's no spark;
     you pulled me close,
     but then you fall.

This girl refuses to spend
anymore of her life
kneeling in the dirt,

tending to others needs
before my own.

My spine will not be bent
so others can stand tall.

I am worth so much more than that.

i didn't used to be so weak

i'm usually headstrong.
never backing down.
optimistic.
confident.
happy.
when did it come to this?
