There is a gravity
Pulling on my heart
Like a dead weight pressing it to the front of my chest.
Leaving it heavy as it crushes my lungs
And aching
There is lump in my throat
I can't shake
Blocking the words coming out of my mouth
No air or breathe behind
To accel them out
Waiting for the moment to pass
It lingers as never ending
breathing comes shallow
With each breath
Pain behind each inhale
Burning behind each exhale
How long will this last
It feels as for eternity
A prison from this
Trapped inside one's own body
Hoping to escape
Soon it ceases
The heaviness ends
Breathing comes easy
Lump dissipates
Sigh of relief
For a brief period
It will all start again soon
Like it is on infinite repeat
