    Rhythmic Failure

    Machines playing the rhythm of my heart
    my soul tattered crying for justice
    loved ones claiming I'm dead inside
    bickering between my life or my death

    listening how people really feel
    never something I wanted to experience.
    my mother's tone, "I always knew he'd end up dead"

    Father grabbing my hand squeezing my skin,
    never been a praying man until now
    "God..can you hear me when I scream?"
    my thoughts are caged inside of my skull

    How is it that the people who once rejected me
    are now the ones in charge of deciding my fate

    Pictures fly through my mind,
    graduation..wedding..first child
    I can hear my wife's voice;
    "It should've been me."
    no baby it's supposed to me
    take care of the baby, and don't forget about me

    Baby sisters cries deafen my ears
    but their laugh is my favorite song
    I just want to reach up and touch their faces
    one last time.
    They whisper to against my cheek
    "we love you big brother"
    And that strikes a nerve in my heart

    Controlling mother demands for the doctor
    God, allow me to show some semblance of life
    that's all I ask of you, or atleast

    let me hear my baby's cry or laugh,
    or feel the love of my life's peck on my cheek.
    remembering the proposal and her screaming
    "FUCK YES"


    If I die tonight
    atleast my last thoughts are of her.
    I smell her raspberry soaked skin
    hovering over my forehead
    her lips pressing against my dry
    skin.

    She's the one who's supposed to save me
    and as soon as her lips collide with my calm skin
    my heart rate jolts up,
    the machine goes wild, doctors rush in

    Yelling, crying, her hands stayed on mine
    the entire time, making sure I stayed with her
    God, her voice is incredible.
    "He's meant to be alive!"

    Doctors beating down my chest,
    injecting the needles into my veins
    controlling my seizing body.
    Barely alive but I'm hanging on dearly.

    My eyelids shoot open, but it's all a blur
    I open my mouth but nothing comes out
    but I don't even
    care.

    Because, I'm fucking alive.

    I was really feeling these lines alot....Idk why but I liked the part where the baby sister is like hurting and it had me thinking about them missing out on having that older overprotective brother.

    There was another piece that I peeped of yours where I couldn't follow the story too well but I got this one. A guy is in the hospital and its like he's having a near-death experience and his spirit is in the room watching his loved ones mourn. Nice, creative story.

    I liked these lines also....they really go well with the title and embody what the piece is about....crafty opener in my opinion.

    the theory of cause and effect is flawed,
    we expect the outcome to mirror the struggle, that's wrong.
