A brief poem about life as it is within personal perception, accosted by the views of external players.

Something sits upon my chestI have felt it beforeI know it wellThis feelings has become a dreaded friendCruel as it is engaging, it captures my attentionNothing else can resonateImpervious to distractionsThere is a pit that always joins its stayToday it brought another friend, one I’ve never metStrange introductions change the weatherMy smile escapes upon its nameIt shows me the futureIt calls to mePromising to make me weightless
