a little spark in conductors

connecting thru

lights you up

your space and spirit 


tiny tweaks you never noticed

till stolen 

gushes of air 

you've never felt


alone on the spreads

eerie silence falls

you turn side to side

peculiar buzzing in your ears


like cancer

it spread

thoughts as dark as the room

fills your mind, heart and soul  


ears bleed

as you try to close them shut

nails pressing into skin

you can't keep it out


stop, stop this paralysing pain

coming at me like a bullet train

a lump in your throat

you're about to scream


the lights come back on

there's wind in the air 

you are once again light and alive

"goodbye for now"

you tell yourself
