Voices

Thoughts racing in my head Can’t focus on one To many thoughts to bare Lots of voices I can’t understand I can’t explain I get hold of one until it slips by its very end I gasp for air hoping for stillness Desperately clinging By its loose end Lots of questions I can’t answer Beyond the anger and shattering thoughts There’s something missing My breath gets heavier As my thoughts burst in my head I gaze through nothingness Trying to relieve my brain Everything goes blank World stop spinning Clock stop ticking I’m there in the middle In a place unknown Between Relief and pain I blink I’m still here! I shake my head I’m still here! Where is here? No light No colors No life Yet I can hear those voices From far away I can hear their footsteps They are coming my way I run through emptiness Yet I’m not moving at all I'm out of breath Yet I’m getting no where Emptiness grapes me by the leg I slip into more emptiness Until it all turns to blackness They hold me from the back leave me falling in a deep dark hall And here I go again ....
