I wake up hollow.
the windows and doors,
all open,
but my soul is still a vacuum.
Not the bad felling,
you get at the pit of your belly.
No! I feel no pit.
Just infinite descent
Into the darkness ..
Infinite darkness, so thick
you could cut it and make sandwiches.
I take a deep breath
but its not enough
terribly not enough,
doesn't fill my lungs.
they seem to expand no more ..
They are just hollow,
still empty.
the air gets hot,
on the trip down my gullet.
burning me up,the whole of me and this rain seems to fuel it.
Despair hangs in the air
taut, at breaking point.
I cut the damn rope,
it's cold waters drench me
Washing away bitter memories,
of nightmares too close to reality
or is it reality too close to nightmares?
I don't know Anymore.
I'm incosistent, what with rejected love poems,
ignored apologies and crushed tinkers? ...
Damnit! Its time to swim back to land.
