Bright sunlight, blinding strobe lights,
Shimmering glittering stars and searchlights
I struggle to keep my eyes open.
Laughing, giggling and glasses clinking
Cheering and waves of gleeful sounds
I try to focus on one thing but cannot focus on anything,
It’s too good to be true, I wonder.
I start questioning my own sense of being.
Trying to understand where I fit in,
And suddenly everything turns dark.
Pitch black and dreadful,
Unilluminated, spine-chilling void,
Pin drop silence, deserted abyss.
I am scared and disoriented,
How can things change so rapidly?
I shudder as I step forward into the unknown
Then, I heard it.
Perfect symphony of sound
A crack of steady stream of light peers in through a crack
I punch through the frustration, shattering the veil.
Glass floor, smiles and perfect rhythm
Welcoming faces beckoning me towards them,
I feel at ease, certain and peaceful,
Harmony adorned with beautiful light,
I see clearly, hear perfectly and I finally smile.
