The speed of life
Slows to a crawl
Weak and whispered speech

Turns to drone
Feel myself drop
A thousand feet

The lowest place I've ever been

The ground beneath our feet is sinking

At least it feels that way
Choking on some shortened breaths


Gasping for words to say
As bloodflow slows and stalls again
Neurotoxin numbness settles in


Taste the sugar crash
And take a look

At the still sky
As it falls
As it falls...
