Melting Away

I lay on the floor

my soul dissolving and melting from me.

A pressure is pushing onto my heart,

I can’t move, breathe or see.

How can I become muscle and bones?

So I can stop the seepage of life,

the tears and the moans.

The sadness overpowers me

and kidnaps my mind.

The weakness of my pathetic

being is cruel and unkind.

I’m oozing away as each minute goes by

Drowning in sadness,

I gasp for air and I cry.
