Wailing My Keen

Crushing weight of fear bury me
Five stories below, enfeebled and bleak
Tethered to this dirge in my dreams
Up above their wailing my keen

Discord unresolved
Disquiet to sense their grieving
As helpless as a new born
Sublime porte dawning
Senses dissolve
As does this laboured breathing
Unknown horizons
As the aether comes a’ calling

Body displaced so slow this heart beats
Yet not enough to let myself be
Racing thoughts search for some reprieve
I am not ready to leave

In all i have loved and all i have scorned
In all i have said and all i have done
In every action taken
In every opinion held
Each moment accumulated
Is this groundswell overwhelmed
And still from afar
I can feel them wailing my keen
