Dancing rhythm

Step by step, heart pumping in unusal melodic pattern..
Sweat beads draining down her face, salt--stinging her eyes,
Fuck, blurred vision..cannot see.
She makes her way up the mountainside,
Remembering to not lose sight of those boots in front of her-
And to never look up.
She draws a beautiful parallel between her job and the "fire in her mind."
Falling down and getting back up is all she knows.
Fucked up, yet thoughts of color flower deeply, sinking deep.
Insanity outside prevails, yet she feels the enigma of peace--
Her mind..quiet for once.
She knows if she were to remain prostrate,
The fight would end.
An inner madness fuels the fire within her, gets her up the hill.
This mind won't win the war, the hill won't kick her ass.
The victory is yours Oh Lord!
This battle has already been won..
She has reached the top, refreshing air and smoke in one--
The best of both worlds, unscathed, she continues.

You

The enigmatic way of you,
Causes one to wonder, what is your mystery?
What lies therewithin?
Broken speech, no word, no loss...
At least that is how I try to convince myself,
Of your absence and silence.
At times it feels as if my heart is extracted..
From my being.
Step on it, will you?
To end how I feel,
The feeling that my heart beats only for you.
