this feeling

it's a feeling that comes in

waves

and settles

deep  in your bones

leaving you weak

your head hanging in

defeat


this feeling makes you feel like

a shaking leaf that barely clings

to a

dying tree

as strong winds try to blow it away


this feeling  makes you unable to speak

the words sticking in your throat

making it hard to

breathe


And with each wave of this

terrible feeling

the sea

in your eyes breakthrough

the weakened dam

that tried to hold back the

waters

and forms a river down your

defeated face


call it what you want

but just know that it

doesn't have just

one word

to describe it

this terrible feeling
