My Body

My heart collapsed from the pain 
My head swelled form the pressure 
My feet gave away when I tried to continue my journey 
My eyes burn from the heat 
My nose bleeds uncontrollably from the poison 
My ears thumb with cries for help 
My tongue is my only lethal weapon 
My arms can’t agree on anything 
My conciseness arrested my soul for flying in a no flying zone 
And god is the only thing keeping them a body
