Sighs

sounds like,

breath of wind

exhale the soul

as your eyes dim

sounds like dissatisfaction,

disappointment 

in your bones

rattling your legs,

your ears are closed doors

as the world turns

off its lights 

for the night

that breath circles

your lifeless abdomen

complicit in its slow trail

as it pulls you under,

waves hitting rocks

punch to your gut,

it ends

when you suck it back in

so do it.
