Sitting here.....

Location

Sitting here thinking,wondering,waiting,watching
Listening,teaching,walking,talking
Breathing heavily, body shaking
Heart beating faster and faster
Body rocking harder and harder
Mind racing faster and faster
Legs moving swifter and swifter
Mouth running like faucet
Nose dripping like raindrops in the spring
Sky higher than it was yesterday
Ground lower than it was the day before that
Music louder than it was yesterday
Whispers longer than it was the day before that
Voices deeper than they were yesterday
Thoughts stronger than they were the day before that
Skin dryer than it was yesterday
Lips cracked like after shakes of a earthquake more than they were the day before that
Toes with no nail polish like they were yesterday
Nails bit down to just skin more than they were they day before that
Heart racing more than they were yesterday
Chest swollen inside and out more than it was the day before that
Legs aching and bones breaking more than they were yesterday
Knees popping in and out socket more than they were the day before that
Aching all over in and out mentally and emotionally more than they were yesterday
Spiritually, my heart cries out screaming help me! help me! more than the day before that
