Something sits upon my chest
I have felt it before
I know it well
This feelings has become a dreaded friend

Cruel as it is engaging, it captures my attention
Nothing else can resonate
Impervious to distractions
There is a pit that always joins its stay

Today it brought another friend, one I’ve never met
Strange introductions change the weather
My smile escapes upon its name
It shows me the future
It calls to me
Promising to make me weightless
