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.
