Chemical rush
whoosh!
inebriated.
take your fill and maybe you'll weep
later
When the rush recedes,
and your eyes open,
Sober.
what happened?
Dazed.
Your crainium is a vast empty space
"Hello?" "Hello?"
No response.
A retreat.
you've betrayed yourself to echoes of your will
Unheeded.
Silenced.
Bring back the voices,
the thoughts, feelings and framework of your mind.
Bring it back.
Snatch it from the depths of darkness threatening to swallow it whole.
Live.
Breathe.
Stand against.
Go forward.
Replace an instance with eternity.
