Squeezed

who squeezed out/ you’re spirit?

Remember running?

Remember laughing? Really laughing? As your restless eyes lept into the silence. 

NOW 

suck down that second hand laugh. See how easy it is. 

Dread shadows me. It seeps out of my mouth and clings to my eyes. 

They see. They laugh. 

Ha 

Please shoot the messenger.  He uses my tongue.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
