Suffocating
she taps her feet on the floor
he clicks his pen violently
and she bites her nails
they're all suffocating
silently
they're all dying
slowly
the cause?
a silent, small, invisible
criminal
well, she wouldn’t like to be called that
she would like you to know her as
the best friend you never knew you needed
i would like to introduce her to you;
her name is Madame Pappilon
she’s as old as the mountains
she’s as cunning as a fox
and she has more determination than a dog
Madame Papillon is always there for you,
as soon as you meet her, you cannot undo
the forever bond she will have with you
she churns your stomach,
she fogs your head,
and fills your dreams with existential dread
she has a closer bond with some
making their will to live close to none
others, she lets them be;
allowing them to breathe on with ease
