My experience with the Unknown

it's okay


just breathe


deeply.


let it in.


let it out.


and forget.



colors tango in the candlelight.
the age of gravity is over.
everything is liquid.
and reality slips away like you're trying to hold onto a wisp of smoke.



(just breathe deeply)
this cool grass,
this mild breeze,
this open sky.
i've been here before.
this feeling of safety, knowing that you can't hurt me.
not now.


and the stars!
i can hear them sing.
it's like a soft whispers and trickling streams and the steady strumming of an acoustic guitar.
they must know they are beautiful.
and yet
they give their music freely
without regard for what they will recieve in return.
(breathe, breathe)



there's no one else.
and i like it.
i am alone.
so blissfully alone.

i am light
i am the wind.
i am infinite.



what?
no
dont
dont wake me
no.
the meadow is burning.
the trees are crumbling to dust and the water is drying up and the river is cracking
the flowers are dying and the stars are screaming.



(breathe)



why can i never escape this place for long?
i cant stand being shackled to this reality.
