Impetuosity

Impetuosity

A feeling that can only be described in one word

Hands grasp each other searching for comfort with a strangled hold
            Each knuckle changing its hue so that their ghosts can cringe at the color
The heart beat’s pace quickens in the moment the wind moves across skin
Thus leaves it quivering under its cage,
Glazed blue eyes glance at the wall
            Scrutinizing as hours devour minutes and minutes consume seconds
                        Pointed fingers grasp at time and hold it hostage against the vacant white walls                                     that back their crimes.
Covered toes keep rhythm as unheard music runs through the floor
causing the blood to run faster through the tunnels towards their mother,
The mind’s eye sends love letters with flashes of light through the super highways of red and blue,
            Hoping that the messages are received
                        The lungs expand in preparation and as the jolt moves around each balloon as
It races forward towards the mouth and to make a smile form,
The love letter from the brain comes out in the form of spoken word:
Finally,

Freedom.
