For just this
moment,
breathe.
So the little
me can rest,
from all these
unnecessary
struggles,
bring me out
to a place
of solace,
out of this
smouldering
down world
but place me
in a better
corner where
at least
for this moment
i can just breathe
a fresh air,
for this
place is suffocating.
Death and  
stagnation is here
and are
a menace to
everything and
everyone it touches.
It's presence
is devastating.
But for now
let me lay
down on this bed
of a thousand roses.
And savour the
freshness of this moment.
