The rain
falls

but I don't feel it.

Each drop
numbs
me
more.

The sound of your
breath
makes me

suffocate.

Earth glows green
your face
is
our
sun.

Pain

spreads vicious
wraps it's arms around
my slowly

beating

heart.

Stop.
Finish what you started.

But did

YOU

really start it?

Silence
grips
their

souls.

Welcome
vigilant swallow.

Actually, that line about suffocating was in my head when I woke up this morning. So I guess you could say that it came to me in my sleep, but also the rain.
