In this moment I feel as if I am falling, br Into a prison from nowhere, br I see my shadow arabesque as br I watch my reflection appear br In a river of never abating madness- br Hiding from all that is real, br Moments have passed since I lay upon br A cold metal table, br Drifting off to sleep, and br Upon awakening- br I remember nothing, except for br The sensation of falling br From nowhere into nothingness- br As I watch the sun rising, br Outside of a picture window, br I find myself alive in some different place in time. br I feel my heart pounding br As is it were trying to escape br From a prison of iron bars inside of my chest, as br My brain spins about br As it were riding a horse on a merry-go –round, br It’s motor somehow br Rapidly accelerating br As that horse bobs up and down br Exacerbating my fear- br I hear myself screaming br In the midst of deadly silence- br The sun has now risen high over the mountains outside.
