Resulting Experience

As the clouds walk our grounds Falling rain plays the drummer Peeking from the horizon The sun rubs against my skin Leaving a burn Cars yell out of sight Headlights wink in my eyes I walk with a struggle Getting by the wind As it pushes me into a wall Running through my body My hair waves as the rain Touches my face Leaving fingerprints My sweater wraps around my neck The sleeves squeeze my body tightly Loosing breath My lungs crawl within me Grabbing the air Gripping it in refusal to let loose My shirt unbuttoning itself Letting me breathe Telling me to open my eyes and seek To peek at what taunts me My hands throwing themselves in front My teeth forcing to ask this unknown entity what is this meant to be? My toes grip the grass as it pulls me forward My laces take hold of my ankles pulling me backwards My eyes scratch open I see this entity of darkness I ask the wind to explain this haunting The wind speaks aloud and says You have refused your life I blink three times Open my eyes I found myself underwater Resulting of suicide
