Slip-Stream
By Chalin
8,000 miles away.
I stood and stared inside.
everything was there,
but i knew it was
Gone.
Lost somewhere between
latex and rollercoasters.
i should retrieve
your legacy,
i should reclaim it.
But i have swallowed spikes
and intelligent conversation.
the words get lost inside.
Thought slips through the
punctured stillness of my
mind.
they take the form of tears,
i sing to you this way.
how everything is gone
and nothing will remain.
I feel so invisible.
mostly lost and invincible.

This gave me a strong sense of being seperated from reality. Almost like waiting to rejoin the world after a coma, hrm. Interesting read. ~Ship!
