Adrift

I fly above the sky
Go beyond the eyesight
I sway and glide with the wind
And float among the clouds.

I cut through the blinding lights
Hurdle the searing heat
Slither along the bladed rays
And adeptly soar to life.

You close your eyes.
You drown in darkness.
In deep pit you fall
With a thug, you landed.

The silence of night deafens.
From afar a faint sound swell
Like a ticking bomb it flickers
Some silent wishes it foretells.

Crawling you tried to rise.
Gasping for air, breathing
Hands shaking, knees weakening.
The broken dream comes drifting.

Vague figures come to form
Under the tint of the moonlight
Some slanting, some circling
Others bending, others soaring.

Aghast, you peek around
Looking for help to understand
Hallucinating, or am I dreaming?
Distorted figures conjure.
