You bury yourself Beneath a veneer of apathy As though it offers fortification Then slowly without realising The wind blows Through your quietude Unraveling your every thought The shift Reminding you of how Your bones crackle and ache The way your irises sting To alarm you of hurt Your heart is yet to feel In high lonesomeness Silence sounds like water Running in a dark cave And you are falling down Into nothing

Bones
You bury yourself Beneath a veneer of apathy As though it offers fortification Then slowly without realising The wind blows Through your quietude Unraveling your every thought The shift Reminding you of how Your bones crackle and ache The way your irises sting To alarm you of hurt Your heart is yet to feel In high lonesomeness Silence sounds like water Running in a dark cave And you are falling down Into nothing
