Frantically reaching down for some grounding, Feeling lighter than ever. Feet firm, fingers stretched. Eyes frantically darting around, Looking for a hook or Something to hold on to. Grasping at the sticky air. A pause. Exhale. Let go, Not giving up. Lose control in order to gain control. Wander alone for security and wonder, What happened to safety in numbers? No voices getting heard, All drowning in conversation. A pause. Inhale. Head up, mind back. Dizziness is relieving. Lost in familiar places, Home but not quite. A lone ranger, alone, Yet still not lonely. A pause. A breath.

Paused.
Frantically reaching down for some grounding, Feeling lighter than ever. Feet firm, fingers stretched. Eyes frantically darting around, Looking for a hook or Something to hold on to. Grasping at the sticky air. A pause. Exhale. Let go, Not giving up. Lose control in order to gain control. Wander alone for security and wonder, What happened to safety in numbers? No voices getting heard, All drowning in conversation. A pause. Inhale. Head up, mind back. Dizziness is relieving. Lost in familiar places, Home but not quite. A lone ranger, alone, Yet still not lonely. A pause. A breath.
