Salty water drips
down my cheeks.
Tears stain my face.
Rosy, puffy, swollen.
I gasp for comfort.
As I inhale, galaxies
explode in my chest.
Burning, ripping, and shredding.
Pain escapes from my lips,
formed as a desperate sob
followed by
a haunting silence.
The galaxies have burned out.
Nothing is left
as all of the air is expelled
from my aching lungs.
All that remains is
a void so cold and empty,
I am forced to breathe again
and burn.
