knee breaks
heart weight tons
chest getting heavier
by the second
eyes blink unstoppably
still can't see simple objects
hands restless
touching
my forehead, nose and lips
crunching my teeth
I feel my feet
planted on the ground
unwilling and unable to make.
salty tears bubble under
my eyelashes
and fall one by one
right on my red cheeks
I really wanted that job
guess it wasn't meant to be.
