Slide down
where it’s familiar
Slide down
where you know you’re safe-
Head hits the pillow
body lies still
Could you pray
for my immortal soul
I’m sorry-
I just can’t find the words
stolen or maybe only lost
and I know it’s time
to close my eyes
lie back
float on
Catch a breath-
euphoria before a death
Sink down
fall and drown-
I want to say
It’s really nothing
A nothing flying into nowhere
and that’s ok-
when there’s only nothing
there is nothing left to fear
