Every Breath

every breath is a struggle
a smile is a weight
loneliness joins us at every meeting

tiredness cannot bring sleep
nor boredom desire
nothing left to do
but live

living death is a struggle
all that's left is to wait
nothingness consumes me, I am eaten

bring me rest, bring me sleep
or bring desire
nothing left to do
but live

every breath is a struggle
