Run
What from? I would
Ask my dread
But instead it pried open
my ribs, crushed this heart
and, run
it planted into it
Run from what?
Run
until your lungs can carry air no longer
That was then,
be still
Now it tells,
very still
But why?
rest your back upon earth
let her claim you again
But how?
let her vegetate and grow her
life upon you, crush you
with fear, and the weight of your sins
I see,
be still
be earth
I see,
until your lungs carry air no longer
Slow claps for this one👏well done!

Damnnnnn 👏 I don’t write poems so I’m no expert either, but from the way it’s so evocative, it’s pretty damn good, regardless of what it is. So happy to be reading you 😊
