A Truthful Lie

Tortured bodies leaving
wasted sentiments struggle to
meet.

The silent prayer issued from
before
inciting
the trembling being
to
scream
for release.

Tightened
muscles
inflict
their strained desire to
climb
to other
heights.

Leaving
our breath hanging on deaths
wish
we
disappear with the night.
