The Night I Died
The hour I passed on
The room pressed against my fears
Introverted in pain
No-one heard my interior screams
I wondered if he knew
How much I bled
Would he notice and grieve
When I was gone?
I gave a mental goodbye
To my ungraspable peace
To my choking questions
It was time to start over
The world looks different at rebirth
Thick colors dance
I move strong and persistant
Solidity gives way....
