together.

together.

A Poem by Megan Doeden

As the music kicks in, 
and the drugs start to play.
anxiety has taken the reins,
and destroyed all confidence.
losing my grip,
i grab a hold of your hand.
in that moment 
i lose myself in you. 
the world is now shaping itself '
around us.
bobbing and weaving 
through our
feelings and thoughts.
unraveling every 
untold story,
every 
hidden secret.

inside of 
the silence,
everything is 
revealed. 
gravity pulls us 
together,
within you 
everything turns 
inside out.
i close my eyes, 
and we become 
inhuman.
as you wrap your 
arms around me,
the anxiety is 
washed away.
dripping onto 
the ground.
disappearing in 
the crowd.
we drift into 
another world
where we have 
striped ourselves 
naked
of all that has 
haunted us.

i felt our 
souls play 
together in 
what felt 
like a dream.
coexisting in 
harmony on 
the settling bass.
but as all 
dreams form, 
they
must 
end. 

as my eyes 
began to open.
i saw you. 
not for the 
first time,
but it felt 
almost new.
for a moment,
we understood
everything about 
each other.
the world started
to become 
real again.
the people 
flooded back
into place,
time unfroze.
but you 
weren't a dream.
because you were 
still standing there
next to me.   
with your hand
in mine.
