Release Me


Breath taste like an ash tray, lips quiver, mind is chaos.

smoke turns my lungs black but doesn't fill the void.

You circle my mind  but only the ghost of you surrounds me. You grasp my dreams turning them into Nightmares.

I feel for you but wake up to an empty room. My air is polluted wwith the sadness that intensifies the more i run from it.

Will you ever get the closure you need to release your hands from my throat so i can finally breathe the fresh air that awaits me.
