something right

eyes almost touch
the paper burns
the skin when touched
moved to another emotion
rising to be heard
sometimes you have to yell
and no one will hear anyhow
much will be lost
with no direction
spinning until dizziness
becomes a balancing point
in any direction
written to document
real history not merely his story
around the clock a couple times
not waiting why would anyone
distant word or two come crashing
with no real destination
severe concentration
burning down deep inside
a wounded beast it appears
pushing them all away from the fire
the barren field of thought rising
lost before they manifest
whatever point was intended to be
witnesses kept silent
and far from the site
damaged over time
and changes have been made
the memory will return
haunting a mind that plays
a game in order to survive
someone must be hanging on a word
too many thoughts
nothing waits for no one
might be a storm filling the air
with severe confusion
impending doom
no one is safe under the blanket
called reality nonsense pitching
tents for the troops
arriving before sun rise
fight if you like but it will do no good
everyone is doomed
inferno sky flashing
signals to those
aware of the constant change
the sound drowns
all the water floods the streets
rivers pushing the oceans
take on more than they can handle
just out of reach
fall beneath all the walls
as they crumble
originally thinking
to fail on purpose
just to show something
can be done correctly…
