i feel like i've been asleep
and i'm slowly starting to wake up
to find i no longer recognise the world
layers of dead weight
and dried out husks of things
that once I gathered around me
to clothe and keep me warm,
which made me feel safe and protected
now feel so heavy
and drag my listless body down, down
down into the deep.
as the fog slowly clears from my head
i begin to wonder when this happened
and how I got here.
yet somehow none of it seems to matter
in the light of my desperate need
for air.
