Abruptly
I am thrown
into
cold cold cold
water
quickly sinking
deeper
deeper
deeper.
Once pulsating
with the sensations of
life,
my body is
silent, numb, surviving.
I feel no more.
I am
no
more.
No breath left.
I am dragged up
to
air.
like backing up
into an electric fence that I didn't know was there,
I am startled with returning sensation.
Pain, ice, misery.
I take a breath, and wait
to go
numb.

I am floating
Higher
Higher
Higher
I can only float so high
I know this
When will I crash?
Maybe this time things can change.
Let me reach a little higher
Before
I crash
Back down
Farther
Farther
Farther

Doctor Doctor!
Help me! I'm dying!
My cells are crying!
Everyone is screaming!
I can't quit bleeding, and
I need to stop breathing!

Jumping up
screaming
your fingernails tear
the wallpaper that was never there
walls
crumbling down
where are you now?
You're pyschotic

I've figured it out: I'm dead.
And, wow, there is a God!
One just as horrible as they said.

**** your flowery words

don't mean ****

Chaos devours me;
let's small talk and pretend that
everything's fine.

Always pay attention
When someone else is speaking
If it didn't mean something to them
They wouldn’t talk about it at all
Always listen closely
For the answers you are seeking,
May be closer than you think
Found in the ramblings of that call
Imagine if you will
A world where everyone cared
Where they leaned ear in intently
Instead of filling our heads with doubt
Maybe we'd all be happier;
Collectively less scared
We could solve all of life's problems
If we just heard everybody out
You see confidence builds greatness
Yet we continue to put each other down
Jealousy and rage keep us from turning the page
Even when the story could teach us something profound

So the world hurts us both,
and we suffer, alone, together,
hoping to save the other from our pain.
