Up? Or down?
My body levitates between two worlds
As I stare at the blank blue that throws me
Off this earth.
In that moment I am nothing, and everything,
And as I am suspended in time my
Mind is suddenly aware.
Aware of the rustling white noise that
Lies within silence, which hides the many
Voices of the beyond.
I can hear them now, they’re getting louder
But I know you can’t, so you ask me if
I'm ok; of course I am.
I am aware of their unreality but
Still, I am wary not to let them know
That *I know they are there.
So I return to the floating ocean
Above, or was it below, me and am
Once again, drifting.
People with psychosis can have problems with perception and feel disorientated when they look up at the sky. This happened to me today.
