air

by @ivoryrowes

Between two minds my mind flips Why do you feel so empty sometimes Do you float above your body and are robotic action Are your thoughts your actions Are they all the same, are they different Are you everything at once Once warm the next seemingly cold If emotions could be that easy to separate How easy would I be to dissolve I am losing my grip on my perceptions because I am the manipulated I am clay Use me use me and abuse me I will beg for more Because I am a sacrifice I give myself even when I have already given everything And I realize in a quick shudder that The closer I get the faster I might let it fade But I hate the space How did I let this confusion overwhelm me in its toxic cloud I am a delusion An illusion All is illusion I am the audience Gasping at magical feats That are smooth gimmicks I am the happiest fool.
