I wander in memories
Not all my own
I look for a way out
Still,
I walk here alone…
I’m not sure how I wound up here
Or why so many dream of me
I do know I can find no way out
Every day,
I feel myself losing my grip
On my sanity…
Today I saw a gas station
In it rang a phone
No voice on the end
Just emptiness
Reminding me,
I’m alone…
Yesterday I was in a house
A woman was fighting with her spouse
It reminded me of things I don’t quite know
I never remember my biggest memories
Before coming here
I wish I had a way out
Still, I sit here…
One memory I saw
Was that of a man
A shadow for a face
One eye that’d open
The demented look within its gaze
Was enough to make my hair raise
Still,
It was nothing compared to what came next
The mouth opening
I saw many things
I saw another life
Another world
The gnashing of souls
Long since disappeared
The mans tongue flailed quite mad
I ran
Overcome with sadness
Rushing up steps
I saw a place
Tall buildings all around
I didn’t recognize it.
The tongue had stopped giving chase
The man
He’d faded…
Nothing ever makes sense
Though as I stand up
Feeling this gas station shift in place
I know the next reality
Won’t be the same…
It never is,
I’m not sure what connects things
I do know
No matter what or who I may see
It’s all an illusion
A place out of time…
-I’m Alone Always-
