Ever been a sponge- soaked with enthusiasm

Then sucked dry till your bone-hollow and rattling

Ever been a floating ballon- lost in the sky

Then a deflated rubber- limp on the floor

Ever made a ladder- to reach up high

Ten realised you dug a pit- dank, wet and stinking

Ever held a beating heart-pulsing and slippery

Then felt it stop-encrusting, cold and fatty

Ever been full to brimming-sat outside yourself

Then spat it out-a messy descent inwards

Ever been a window-looking out beyond

Then become a wall-shut, closed and suffocating
