life in small doses

a patch of
sky. a crumb of
cheese. a

drop of
water dribbling
towards your
tongue.

life seems very
small, right
now & my body
feels deathly
tired.

days &
nights trudge
forgetfully into
oblivion.

lungs
closed for
exhaustion––

heart
flickering
in the
distance.

drowning in
slow-motion-tidal-waves
of fear,

i’m flailing to
hold my self
together––

the what &
who i
am.
