The music spirals me unto the room
Moving swiftly, dancing to the beat
Singing softly, whispering loudly
Typing hasty, losing count of time
My heart beats faster, the pressure raises
My thoughts succumb me, and I then resist
Ecstasy fills the room, I continue to dance to the beat of the drums

Blurry visions, clear blue skies
My watery eyes deceive me as I look into the mirror
Distorted faces, mistaken places
Thoughts and questions thinking where and why
Deep breathing, sudden gazes
Looking down these rabbit holes
An endless loop of surprises

alone by the fire
memories dance upon embers
then burst into flames
