War
Showered with relief's salty drops
Breath a mile away
Not even for pity can it stop
Bubbles of cruel uncomfort
Disperse all at once
No ray of light to illuminate the dark
Smirking shadows blow tinted wind
Paralyzed drums breathe it in
Vultures pluck at the brute lifeline
Each harder and faster
Reasons easily justified
Trembling matter
Taunted by the thoughts
Charming heaviness
Caring for the lids
Nothing left but a few frail limbs
Labored whispers
And a book full of sins
