Not again! the floor drops beneath me I feel it go my body suspended mid-air the head in front of me still talking mouths moving words don’t match the shape they make sounds garbled echoing taunting my feet hang momentarily unaware of their vulnerability life moves around me I am not a part of it I scream silently help catch me I am gone worthless pointless useless my demons free inside my head soundlessly my fingernails scrape the sides I fall can’t you see? how can you let this happen? save me! alone dark hole sobbing my words sharp hurtful my heart is torn I tear at yours I wake I’m exhausted still here the sounds make sense now I find strength climb out damn the hole you are still here everyone is here sorrow regret humiliation Again.
