Melodrama

One night I jumped from a building similar to the Sears Tower My back against the air of unmoved molecules that migrate inside my spine Falling Sometimes I'm able to breathe underwater through my nostrils as aquatic life of the oceans Or so I fly in fain this firmament With wings of freedom plunged at my request On dark days I'm invincible of being harmed by violence Though fear is like a fresh apple Always tempting to be afraid Fear is a fragment of my imagination And chimeras surround me with a chill And children cheer this creature of a cattle And cheetahs chase my carnality up the chestnut My eyelids fall like curtains of a play Shall I seize the day Sleeping Sounds of seconds pass through minutes slept Snoring Sentimental thoughts of the past underline my screenplay Memories I plan with vagueness, inventing visions of the imagination in the realm of fancy Dreaming
