You know that feeling you get

where your eyes feels this tremendous amount of pressure

and your vision begins to blur

and you look up in those god forsaking clouds

as if they can stop that salt water substance falling from your cornea

then you blink profusely to try to keep it together

But your heart is falling apart

and your cheeks become the gateway of emotion

As that salt water substance rolls down your face

then they suddenly dry. .

when you decide to get up and walk away. .

The wind on your face and the ground beneath your feet keep you balanced

your so weak words seem foreign

As that salt water substance. .
