Break of Tears.
An anchor dropped,
left side of my heart,
a minute more and it may come apart.

Heavy are the bubbles
that weigh on my cheeks.
So blocked the room in my heart
it chokes.

Airflow hangs in balance,
impression of a cloudy ambiance.
Breathing, sapped.
Heartbeat beaming like beacons
a colorless show, EMERGENCY calls.

It is not easy to breathe through pain
neither is it to stay sane.
Tears flood my sockets
like water, filled it buckets.

A clap of my lids
and the liquid recedes
a long glide
on both side.

My eyeballs in white watery pool
Coming off in droplets before it pours.
Upon landing on Emotions
I lost my toughness
My reasoning gave way
to the shedding of tears.
My body rings the bell
but nobody to help

Peace goes missing in action.
Just when we prized it attention,
Peace of mind eludes the mind.
