monsoon tears
head pounds like thunder
whirlpool madness
pulls me under
cruel voices
sudden doubt
distant vision
I can't make out
cries that choke me
breath won't come
fingers clenching
lips are numb
spinning, reeling
eyes on fire
common sense
resists desire
no solutions
no sense yet
grasp the passion
find regret
shut the mind down
loose the heart
finish this
before it starts
seize one moment
hold it fast
cherish it
could be the last
