Their voices echoing
I was losing my hearing.I was alright
A while before.Just a word
Became a trigger.Bullet of madness
Almost taking me.I was sinking
I was concious.There is an attempt
To swallow me, again.Vision began to swirl
Darkness creeping.From all the corners
Of my failing cornea.We were just laughing
Now why am I crying?Inside the mind
A replay.It repeats
A scene of falling.Someone from the rooftop
I don't know who.He was falling
Again and again.Unrecognizable
Too much brain matter.Splattered on the ground
Why is no one around?He doesn't listen
He keeps falling.He keeps climbing
It was too disturbing.Now I am sinking
The laughs were gone.They were replaced
By a flesh, bone breaking sound.I know that I was not there
I was sitting on a chair.I was chatting
With everyone.Where are they?
I can't see them.This scene
Keeps repeating.Too nauseating
Almost fainting.Tried to blink
I felt it.But my eyes
We're blinded.Suffocation
Started binding.But then
I was jolted.Awoke
From grieving.The laugh
Of a friend.Pulled me
Back to then.With a sigh
How thankful.Laughed again
A little awkward.I could have been
Taken in.Just throw it
At back of my mind.A little scare
From the void.Inside my head
A sigh of relief.Almost sinked
Well I lived.JovialMask2023
