Kingdom Come

by ·

1/21/2019
One deep breath is all I need
oxygen escapes from my lungs

When I open my mouth, my tongue recedes
left with my song unsung

How can I take another step
with my legs and feet gone numb

Choking on the stifling air
I'm left breathless and dumb

White light takes hold, carries me away
Into thy kingdom come
