Once and a while: you find yourself not knowing where to turn,

an elastic band threatens the air decreasing within your lungs,

cries only amplify the emotion of growing concern,

words evaporate upon dire tongue,

Have you been found?

Careful trusting: they like to drown;

Sun holds immense power,

rain cleanses in spring time showers,

this elastic band – too – soon will falter.
