Voiceless Victim (V.1)

Choking on an imaginary breath

the kind that lingers just out of reach

The irony within the lack of speech

as the spheres close

weighted down by heavy clouds

suffocating

drawing out the last spit of life

weathered and worn

severing the ones so freshly born



Within a shaking palm

so insignificant and cold

the blue skin quivers and cries

but no tears come forth from closing eyes

darkness, light, darkness, light

flashing before the sight

of the voiceless victim so young

awaiting death to pluck him from this

limbo

weak willed and dying

taken away

far away.
