Downpour - Kataplexis

Poring rain has soaked her bones

Veil of fear covers her eyes

She can sense she’s not alone

Cling to comforts deep inside

Makeup runs as fast as her

Her heartbeat stops time

Brain shuts down

Panic sets

Strangers disappear

Beauty

Pours out of her soaked skin

Grasping

For a hope that won’t exist

Feel as though she born for this

You were made to bow

Beast of burden Roman’s blood

Not meant to survive

She exists within my mind

Just a false perspective

In her

Cold gaze I no longer feel

I steal

Her thoughts for the first time

Shatter

Comfort tries to grip at life

Last breath

Exhaled to the void

Our paths will cross when light dilates

I pass you with a smile

Suffocated in the rain

A fitting cross to another plane

She breathes through me now

It burns my lungs

What have I done?

The first time is always the hardest
