Fill In

Sitting in the air;
A world
To enter
Yet
You
Do
Not dare;

Turn around and look;

Now wait and close
Your eyes;

Closing in
So many words
Floating in
My mind
Pictures I do
See
When it is words
Spoken to me

Here it comes
A big suprise

I start to write
I pause

What is going on?

Where am I?

Where have I
Gone?

Nothing looks
Familiar;
Not streets
Not signs
Not words

I go to speak
Just
Silence

Living in a
World
Separate from
Time
Void

Pick up my camera
Take a shot
I may forget this
Moment

Catatonic
Blinding rage
Lack of space
Lack of time

I finally sit
Back
I crack and
I cry

Stand up
Stand straight
Stand tall

Not good enough
At least I tried;

Amnesia
Took
Away
A lot
Of precious
Time.

I thought you
Knew.

Please,
Don’t waist my
Time;

A time to
write;

A time to
Sing;

A time to tell
A time to smell.
