Breath slows, clock melts,
ceiling starts to drip
Static in my skull,
feel my consciousness slip
Raindrops turn to codes
when they hit the floor
Body on standby,
I’m something more
Buzzing like wires
wrapped round my brain
Gravity loosens, can’t feel the pain
Eyes shut, wide awake
in the dark
Thoughts detach,
leave a luminous mark
Floating past fear,
through the ceiling tile
Fear still whispers
but I hover awhile
{verse}
wait slow down
where am I
feel very
strange
raindrops
hit water
droplets
hear buzzing
in my ears
feeling
lifted
twisted
in fear
body asleep
i'm not there
wait
pause
what's this
flying
detached
ascending
higher
seems like dreams
real very soon
spirit as left the room
and I'm not ready to go
suddenly feel as if
I'm being pulled down
feel my body
and solid ground
open eyes
realise room has changed
but exactly the same
Silver cord humming,
pulling me thin
Half in the room,
half somewhere within
Try to shout back
but my mouth won’t move
Lucid like truth when there’s nothing to prove
Snap
back
hard
shuddered breath
Alive
in the gap
between life
and death
sleeping
flowing
paralisis
lingers
numb
here
but far
all is how
it should be
