did the earth crack
it made no sound
but with every step i fall deeper
my skin is wearing down
scraping against the ground
i was looking for something
i thought it was you
i saw you in a dream
defying the unsleeping
i gave in and got lost
when i looked back
there was no one.
just a dim fading light
and the shaking never stops
in this labyrinth darkly lush
an aberration in that place
between sleep and wake
Imprints dwelling in
neuro degenerations
raving narrations
of hidden wanderers
abandoning all hope..
i’ll just close my eyes and
dream again
