I am feeling morbid, somewhat

Lost in my own thoughts, but

Connected to the world, through

An umbilical cord in my brain of

Sound and vision.

 

I can hear the AC turn off and on, however

I don’t feel the air, my body is numb and

There are parts that don’t respond to

The neuron signals any longer; no

Moving or touching.

 

It’s almost as if I am floating in a vast

Nothingness of space; gravity still works,

But I have no weight for it to pull upon, so

Like a cloud, I am just here with no

Feeling or doubt.

 

Slowly my eyes begin to close of their own

Accord or maybe my vision simply gives up.

The light is dissipating in swirls and

Tendrils of greys and soft pastels.

Even sounds are gone.

 

Before the Darkness
