Seeing is Believing

The world spins around my face,

Out of the corner of my eye,

Is something out of place,

Mouth open in a silent cry.

Shake my head as spots appear,

Out of the corner shadows arrive,

I spin around shaking with fear,

But they follow me, they're alive!

Movement of nothing haunts my vision,

Pulling me away from this world,

Time for a big decision,

On a trigger my fingers curled.

Sparks fly and I squeeze,

The shadows dance to congratulate,

My hair ruffles in the breeze,

I am approaching a gate.

Falling, falling, falling,

With shadows and colors,

Help me, I'm calling,

Stuck in the covers.
