Loss



The pain travels up my neck

and takes hold of my skull

An irregular chemical exchange

A few hours lost


I see life through still images


Rizatriptans and espresso shots

Pins dropping to the sound of explosions

My night light is a blinding sun


Words merge together

Life fades to black

Seconds turn to years

Yet days slip through my fingers


I hope the world will still remember me

When the clouds lift

and I am me again.
