Surrounded by many… many people
I could see their faceless faces
No comprehension
I could hear their voiceless voices
No understanding
I could feel their erratic movements
No sensation
For two whole weeks
My bedroom was a black hole
Sucking me and all in
Darkness prevailed
Not a thread of light could be seen
Or escape
Energy condensed
Infinite mass with naught dimension
Time withered to zero
Insanity in action
Verified there and then
Two weeks of anguish of epic proportions
Numb, staring at the void… breathless… motionless… emotionless
Except for my heart
Kicking and screaming
Beating at the speed of light
My sweetheart is leaving
My heart racing to follow
How can I restrain?
