• Drifting without a sound
    It moves above you
    Below you
    Around you
    And through you.


    It takes hold of your mind
    And never lets go.
    Soon, it is in your heart
    In your thoughts
    And in your soul.


    You cannot blink
    And yet your eyes open and close.
    You cannot breathe
    Yet you inhale and exhale.
    You cannot think
    Yet thoughts run in and out of your mind.
    You cannot die
    Yet you feel the sweet embrace of the life beyond this one.

    You struggle and fight
    But it holds on.
    Th fight leaves you
    And you lie and wait.


    You are waiting for the one.
    The one who swore that you would live.
    The one who promised to hold you
    Protect you
    Keep you safe forever.

    But that person never shows up.
    And you are lost.
    Lost forever
    And ever
    And ever.
