By The Day

by the day

the fumes

they grow more, and more dense,

darker,

and more riotous

blinding,

deafening,

and more impassable‐

i dread another day,

and fear another night‐

by each minute

and every hour

everything grows darker‐

by the day

the fumes

they manifest this void

my only company‐

within this nightmare,

exists such a dread

that is an eternal impasse‐

only from the outside,

can i be freed

but by the day

the fumes

they consume me

hiding me

no one can see

through to me

this void that surrounds me,

becomes my only company‐

i know it and it knows me

by the day we grow more acquainted

by the day i cannot...

i cannot take it‐

not another,

not one more‐
