Words were baffling

Voice was cracked

Request was simple

Travel quickly as a friend

Travel quietly with a friend

Wipe a slate.

Patch a life

The soft dirty path was stained

Dry walls preserve hidden struggles

A call echoed images of a plea

Stomach pains with guilt

Hindered breaths lie heavy

Eyes blurred behind a wall

Crunching sound of broken glass

Echoing thru the emptiness

Fake strength laughs holds it back

Drown by hammer and nail

Sounds of odd conversations

Familiar distant voices

Drenching smell of loneliness

Consequential finds

Hope of resurrections

Fearful of

A lasting Lazarus effect
