EMBRACE
FASTER than a jerk on the breaks that langed your body though a wind shelled that suddenly throws you to the floor
as the concrete scraped the fearlessness off your face
SMOOTHER then a tear down the rigid face of a shaken body that caved into the sheets that reveal her inner self
that made the horror of screams escalate through the ceiling of the mind
EXPOSED like a fireworks colors on a pitch black screen
WHITER than a doves wings as it soars around the fluffy clouds of grey
MASSIVE like the armor of a solider that marched through the mist of war aiming for the lives of the enemy seeing flesh
instead of a human being trying to survive
QUICKER than the words you wish you could take back
hesitant from the signal of regret
CALMING then the waves that rush towards the horizon and drag the debris that winded up towards the sandy rocks of land
FORCEFUL like a herd of wild animals that spread deep though the pale ground of the safaia.
SOOTHING than a grown man blues on a saturday night
getting high off the passion of music
PENNILESS like the bridges that provided for the empty soul that indulge the air
hopping to be filled with the taste of a 2nd chance.
SMALLER than the ant of the cracks and peaks
HIGHER than the stars of the galaxy that we wish a pond that makes space something more to invasion
PROTECTIVE as a flock of honey bees as if you could stop them from an attack
ABOUNDED by the tracks we trace back assuming that when we follow
will create a new destination to only walk backwards back into to the world of hate
FLAVORFUL that our taste buds consume a bitter treat addictive and lingering so we wonder the aftertaste guilt and selfishness that become harder to chew
stuck in the stomach of something which will not defuse
SNEAKY like the creatures that lie underneath the rocks but vicious with a pitch ready to kill as they digest their last meal
BOILING by the heat of the blazing sun among my dark skin becoming a shade unrecognizable son
SECRETS that hide the numerous amount of sins
LOOSER than the shoe laces that seem to come to an end because it becomes so weak that it just release
FORGOTTEN like the passing people we fail to see blinder then the eyes that seek the daylight from a sleep so restrained from the busy work of the day
GRACEFUL like an angel's feather that fall from the heaven and land on me
FAKE like a Barbie dolls smile that seem so perfect but describe by a label "a toy "nothing more than plastic
IRREPLACEABLE like the ticks of a clock
please
EMBRACE every second you've got
Because once it's gone theres not much you can do
so hold on tight like it's the only thing you have to LOSE .....
