Slow Drip (v2)

by ·

9/13/2017
My heart beats fast
adrenaline courses past
walls of my veins
acid takes the reins
urgency in this moment
every moment
beset by threats
invisible regrets

take the razor tight
carve away the blight
create the perfect spot
for poison to reach the top

break down this dam
where toxic buildup stands
release to the red sea
that which must run free.
