Hand entangled round your throat

Slowly starts its squeezing

Uncaring hand at your chest

Unwanted disruption to your breathing

 

In, Out, In In In

Grasp is getting tighter

Hand is searching for a way

To make the body lighter.

 

Races round your inner being

Causing havoc as it passes

Rounds up heavy weight of damp

To ascend before it crashes

 

Through blurred eyes and down pained face

A trickle then the warning thunder

Sounds aloud a change of pace

As hand rips suspended nerves asunder

 

Rolling tumbling hazardous waters

Churning deep below the obvious

Rapidly trickle turns to flood

As strangled emotions become tumultuous.

 

Merciless drops demandingly fall

Heedless of the sudden touch

Of the palm that reaches angrily up to

Rid themselves of the likes of such

 

Repulsive tears being surrendered from

A mass of sore and heaving heart

Unwanted torrent pushing relentlessly

Threatening to tear peace apart.

 

Havoc reigns supreme as flood waters journey

Through heaving chest and swollen eyes

No let up from the sudden onslaught

Until hand chooses its grip to realise

 

And reluctantly it releases, its absolute hold 

Uncaringly tiring of its sudden brief reign

And exhausted heart lays emotionlessly empty,

As the storms calm eye brings a dull relief from pain.

nice ranting emotion

I , personally would be a bigger fan of this if I had heard it…

the emotion comes across well.
its all broken for its being..,

I love the piece and hope you continue writing verse…
