Fading light… fading dreams…

A pen in my hand and a tornado in me,

I am unable to control its vigour.

Words come out in mumble,

Thoughts all unclear, trying to get a grip of reality.

I don’t recognise myself,

Or dreams that once used to be.

My eyes are open, my body awake,

But somewhere in a slumber my soul is yet asleep.

I search for a sign, something to connect,

What was to be and what has become of me.

I try to scream and wake up again,

But my voice seems to be a distant memory.

Feels like I am caught in a nightmare,

Trying to wake up and break free,

Looking for that one straw to cling to,

Before the tornado within destroys me.
