Dour

Noah

Skin tearing like velcro.
Heart beating like thunder.
Eyes wither away like dust.
You killed me, and yet you drag me around.

Head haunted like a ghost town.
Knees buckle like deadweight.
Lungs flutter like wings.
You did this to me, and yet I remain above ground.

Whispering moans of our venture lurk through the surface.
Awakening every last memory put to rest.
Shattering the very stronghold that safeguards us.
A revenant within these walls.
