To a tired hand
and skin stretched
beyond what it could bear
—would you hold on
or would you let
the thread snap
to oblivion beyond hell?

To a tired mind
and words stretched
beyond what you
were promised
—would you fight
the waves of destiny
or would you let
the rains flood
your home until
you can't breathe?

To a tired heart
and a smile stretched
beyond what it could handle
—would you slog through
the bitter mud of life
or would you let
the currents take you
to the other end
—beyond hell?

To a tired soul
and a life stretched
beyond what you thought
you were meant for
—would you leap forward
or would you let
time raze you over
until there was
nothing left but your
own face and the breath
you never took?
