the air in this house is exhausted

i breathe in this suffocation,
and with it, i yearn for more,
the air in this house is suffocated,
it is reused but not reborn,
like a middle aged man,
this air is tired of being around for so long
the air in this house is exhausted,
this water is still and untouched,
i am this air: in its stillness, i dissolve,
with it, I reek of dread
i reek of exhaustion
i reek of monotony; beige and tired,
the air in this house is exhausted.
Okay this hit a weird spot in me
the air, the stillness, the unspoken fatigue - metaphorical and real, all at once. nice one!
very evocative
