Sometimes, when I’m around you
I wonder
How much would it take
To push my heart back into place
To reach in
And stop it from pounding
And pounding
Against my ribs
The sound so loud in my ears
The throbbing pressing against my lungs
Leaving no room
No space
For
The air
I so
Desperately
Desperately
Need.
Tell me.
How much longer
Until
You
Leave.
