PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

With each day,

Every breath I take

The air continues to thicken

The walls close in

Pushing me down

Forcing me to struggle for air

Scared of being crushed.

This battle being fought

All consuming

Overwhelming

Is mine alone.

Help requested

Aide denied.

Another day will come

Threatening to win this time

I'm running out of energy

The desire to fight fading.

As these walls close in

And the air suffocates 

Soon I'll surrender to the inevitable.
