Cracking Dam



Today, I feel my dam cracking
Splitting, Tearing, Etching.

While holding back my terrible weight of lifetimes of me.

Splitting Seams, Leaking Seals.
Holding water like fabric.

Not even the release of tears eases the pressure.

Water rises about me.
Fiery anger, bitter confusion, endless sorrow.
Rising around me.

Holding in my precious breath.
But like all things,
It will not last.

All around me.
No Guide, No Sense

Just murky and clouded.

How do I move on from here?
