• Am I alive
    Or simply dreaming?
    I cannot breathe,
    Cannot choke through a heartbeat.
    Cannot see through tears
    Of the thickest salt.
    I cannot fight, cannot give up.
    Will not be weak,
    But cannot muster strength.
    I want to be saved,
    But accept no help.
    Love with a fierce passion...
    And abhor with cold antipathy.
    What can I do when this body rebels
    And no longer protects me?
    Do I continue to exist between life and death?
    Or press onward in one direction?
