Birth

What is this plain of existence?
Is this a dream?
Am I dead?
I must be alive, I can hear my heart beating...
Although it seems much louder now
As if my heart were in a giant chasm
And I'm trapped inside it
The beats are becoming louder and faster
My body is being torn loose!
I'm sliding through the darkness
I can't control my descent!
Something's pulling me!
Who are these strange people?
Why can't I stop crying?
Won't someone please put me back in?
