Stumbling

Stumbling

A Poem by Gaige

A touch so stimulating

I loose the sense of who I am

Make me up so well

Start this heart's beat

My lungs absent of air

It's difficult to breathe

In my nightmares I can't exhale

The pressure builds and builds

I drown and I'm not myself

A shadow of everything I once held dear

Love faltering in currents far and near

I'm holding onto a last string

That's left me so precariously

Hanging between dread and hope

A choice left for wind's favor

Will I fall into nothingness

Can a soul find forever

In a turmoil of unhapiness

Caugh up in the doubt of recovery

There is comfort in the sound

Of your rythmic breathing next to me

The sheets lie unbothered

By your weightlessness

That was once so close

I'd thought I'd never wake

And the walls of this dream

Would never come down
