Burnout

Prompt: "If you're still breathing then you're one of the lucky ones.

Burnout

Small puff of air

so fragile

like glass

and glass can be broken

a rasping breath

no room for air

in a broken glass

Light so bright

shine like a star

so full of life

and in a light so bright

your star burns out

You claw your way in

you cry

you bawl

you crawled your way in

you can live the way out
