Heart crushed

Went deep too fast

Hyperbaric chamber

Conjures a living past

Cells tainted

With the scent

And smile of him

Tears long gone

Dry chambers

Entombed

Within the other

Ghosts dangling

Before blinded eyes

Bones rattling

On deaf ears

Psyche’s burned imprint

Limbic extinguishment

A terminal contradiction
