My mind is melting, sulfur raiding, going numb,
My heart is heavy, black and full of ash,
My throat is closing, collapsing walls of fire,
My eyes are burning, blackened coals.
A rushing thought, flooding anger,
A roaring emotion, pouring pain,
An erupting scream, scouring sadness,
A flooding bank of tears, scathing hurt.
My mind collapsing, all thoughts gone,
My heart stops beating, all emotions still,
My throat closes, all sounds trapped,
My eyes fall back, tears dammed by death.
Too late, I cannot think, a blanket resting on my mind,
Too late, I cannot hurt, a wall around my heart,
Too late, I cannot scream, a mute to hold them back,
Too late, I cannot cry, a dam to stop the flow.
