Sinking deep and low beneath my conscious
Awake in a darkness
Familiar crossroad
And a destination beckons
The lights are extinguished
As the moonlight is lost to doubt
I’m lost amidst a foreboding feeling
Fallen, broken, caged. No way out
Crashing down upon the unforgiving tarmac behind my eyes
Alive but unseeing
Within grasp but no path
The tick of my chest reckons
A labarynth of alleyways appears
The shadowed lanes where people discard their dirt
A mass of sinister same faces pushing bins
Not quite hunting but omnipotent. My body. Inert.
Confusion
Distortion
Reality bends
Suddenly nowhere
The universe descends
Alone but connected
Defying man-made laws
No-one could see me
But believe me I soared!
Through unending dark inside I felt light
Inside was knowing with nothing in sight
Weightless and free my conscious took flight
And the universe shifted as I spun through the night
Fearless and free
From the chains of my mind
A thrill of excitement
Reaching forth from behind
Until
I feel a tug and it stops me quite dead
Where must I return? A blank space fills my head
I drift through the layers of uncertainty heavy like lead
And return to my body and remember my bed
Awake from slumber
Restless from seeing
Sensing the shifting
From outside of my being
