Im Gone
I am a flash
the earth beneath my feet is gone
i am invisible
there is not sky it has disappeared
there are no walls in this empty house
i am nothing inside
And yet time stops for a moment
i hear and listen
a heart beats quickly
a clock ticks
and i hear a flutter of a wing
I stop being a flash
i smell the roses
I'm not invisible anymore
my ear touches the cold wall
a bird on the other side flies by
the clock above me ticks
my heart beat goes faster
I'm back
