_{There comes a time were acquiescence to all things heart-wrenching
Becomes not a choice, but a necessity to salvage everything
Which may mean everything, in the greater picture of your own reality.
Acquiescence to everything which screams to you as wrong,
Everything, which in your own heart, own soul, sears so white-hot
You cannot but want it to end, minutely and unconsciously.

However painful silent acquiescence may be; however heart-stopping,
Soul-searing, and hurtful the act of agreement may seem;

As you realize your sun is shadowed by the clouds, your heavens hide away,
Your oceans churn, and your forests wither;
Your body weakens, your resolve dies, and your heart forgets to feel,
While your mind just sits, letting matters of the heart sap life from all,
Every part of your being, leaving behind the husk of some being before.

This acquiescence; it means so much, so little, and is an integral part
Of some realization you will come to once or twice in your lifetime.

When you begin to realize what you've acquiesced to,
what little jolt to the heart you've taken upon yourself,
From the white-hotness of the initial cut comes the icy numbness;
The completely catatonic state of the heartsick,
The Wandering of the Soul confused. Dazed, your heart seeks to
Rediscover who it was once connected to, through questions, thoughts,
Something to piece together the why of everything you just acquiesced to.}
