bound
to an immobile detrimental entity
determining this shallow heartbeat
it does not seem to belong to me
but the pulsating must mean
I'm breathing
hardly intake air
barely exhale
I've been trying hard to feel it
but my chest no longer knows
how to fall or rise
comes as no surprise
my time is wasted
struggling to penetrate
the membrane of a dying cell
searching for a way
to become what I once was
