Just a Dream

Running, tripping, tumbling, falling
Down
Down
Down.
Darkness. Lostness. Mind blankness.
Burning in skull.
Blinking, blinking, blinking, blinking.
Wake up!

Noise piercing, throat burning.

Scream.

Eyes flash open.

Pain.
Everywhere, nowhere.
Piercing sound…
Me?

Head a bubble
Blankness, nothing.
Nothing.
Nothing.

Memories.
Flash, flashing.
Filling spaces,
Gaps, holes,
Blankness, emptiness.

Full.
It was all

A dream.
