Fuel of Pain

Choking on fuel

That burns anger,

Pain, resentment,

Spitting of words,

Choking the sobs,

Pointing fingers.

Starving for air.

No room to breathe.

Engine gasping,

Chugging, lurching,

Begging to be,

Understood once.

Motorcycle

Engine stalled,

A breath comes in,

Truth exhales fire,

Burning the room,

And all inside.

All is in ruins,

Fuel everywhere,

Poisoning all,

Soaking through earth,

Paralyzing,

And sets me free.

Air and fuel mix,

The spark ignites,

Engine fires up,

Wheels start turning,

The road ahead,

Open, calling,

Beckoning me.
