Heart beating in my ears,
Eyes clenched tightly,
Fists pressed against my heart,
Air rushing into me,
Painful daggers.

Pain erupting,
Strength leaving,
Mirror shatter,
Leave me be.

Each breathe come with pain,
The air that enters,
Is glass from the glittering sea,
Cutting me up,
Inside and out.

It rushes towards me,
The edges,
Cutting deeply,
Leave me be.

My heart is bleeding,
Red falling,
Wounded fatally,
I lay dieing.

Rain turns to glass,
Glass cuts deeply,
Lovely and fine,
Deadly and rigid,
Falling on me now.

Pain meets me,
Each breath harder,
Each beat fainter,
Heart, keep beating,
Just keep breathing.

How will I,
Survive,
This fatal wound?

Getting up,
I leave the pain,
Moving on,
I try to forget,
But pain remains,
Turn away,
Look the other way.

Fatally wounded,
I walk a line,
Fighting dread,
Contemplating death.

On the edge,
Teetering above the sea of glass,
Refuse to die,
Still fighting,
I’ve been fatally wounded,
Scarred for life.
