Drip
drip
drip
echoes round the walls
through the house
every room infected
there is no hiding
no place to find peace
Drip
Drip
drip
it continues
accompanied now
with the constant trickling
of cascading water
down window panes
Drip
Drip
Drip
Louder still
no end in sight
as this infinite loop
of ambience
pollutes my ear
DRIP
DRIP
DRIP
I am drowning
in waves of frequency
my sense diluted
by this steady bombardment
of tiny water bombs

I am wrapped
surrounded
contained
with in this outer shell.
A protective layer
my bullet proof vest
my force field
my cocoon.
Built by my own hands
erected through my own desire
created for my own needs
designed only for me.
I will not emerge
transformed
to bask in the sun
no metamorphic miracle here.
No butterfly effect
or internal realisations
no rude awakenings
no eureka moments
no epiphanies.
I am wrapped
surrounded
contained
with this outer shell
this is who I am.

tired eyes
begin to burn
as my blood drained finger slows
waiting on my brain
to catch up.
sleep will end all pain
