Burdened

Heavy

A mass weighs on me
Heavy clouds seeking to be free
Thick and grey the eye can not see

Flash

Rocketing streaks of electricity
Pounding bolts in a crazy spree
Uncontrollable sparks shoot from me

Fallen

Sunken low it won’t release
Smothered suffocated it cannot see
Drowned below seeking to be free

Reach

Shooting from a cloud below
High in the sky like freak show
Extended hands pushed back in row

Breath

Drops of fallen water
Tears of release that bit lighter
Dark and gloomy a little brighter

Release

Just let it go
Stop the show
Be free and grow
